2011 Norton Torrontes Tasting


Name: Norton Torrontes 
Varietal: 100% Torrontes 
Region: Mendoz
Country: Argentina 
Year: 2011
Price: $5.95

Vintage Cellar's 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 nose was strongly flowery and is filled with peach aromas. The body had slight peach and flower tones. Overall, well balanced, a bit acidic and the wine floated between a light and medium body.

Tasted without food.
