Tasting - Norton Torrontes



Name:  Norton Torrontes
Variety:  100% Torrontes 
Region: Lujan de Cuyo
Country:  Argentina
Year:  2011
Price: $5.95
Tasting Date and Location: 14 Feb 2013 at Vintage Cellar

Winery review:  Greenish yellow with hints of gold, this Torrontés has intense aromas of white peach, rose petal, and jasmine. Norton Torrontés 2011 is pleasant and well balanced on the palate. 

My review:  The was a much softer-tasting wine than the Dibon Cava. It had buttery flavors with a dry taste.  Definitely preferred it to the Dibon Cava.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
