Tasting: Norton Torrontes

  • Name: Norton Torrontes
  • Variety: 100% Torrontes
  • Region: Lujan de Cuyo
  • Country: Argentina
  • Year: 2011
  • Price: $5.95

My Review: This wine had a floral and almost perfume scent. I felt that it had a very light taste, but was actually a very thick wine. There was a medium finish.


Shop Review: Greenish yellow with hints of gold, this Torrontes has intense aromas of white peach, rose petal, and jasmine.  Norton Torrontes 2011 is pleasant and well balanced on the palate.
I did not have this wine with food but I would drink it on its own or with a light salad.
