Tasting – Norton Sauvignon Blanc

Name: Bodega Norton Sauvignon Blanc
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Mendoza
Country:  Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: $12.00


Winery review:  Aromas of pithy citrus and pineapple are decent but unrefined, while flavors of tangerine and pineapple are tropical, zesty and what they are. This is nothing more than a fresh, simple, citrusy white to sip on the patio.

My review:  I agree with the above review calling it a “fresh, simple, citrusy” wine. The wine gives off a strong citrus, pink grapefruit aroma. I didn’t get the grassy aspect so much, typical of a Sauvignon Blanc. Flavors of fresh, crisp sour apple and pineapple are eminent on the palate. Definitely a white wine that I enjoyed.


Food: Did not have with food
