Tasting - Norton Sauvignon Blanc


Name: Norton Sauvignon Blanc
Variety: 100% Silvaner
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: Regular Price $12 Sale Price $5.95

Shop 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: Unfortunately for the five tastings from today I was sick with a head cold so my palate was skewed. Despite the cold the citrus was truly quite powerful. Powerful enough to be recognizable above the fog that was my sense of smell.  And the body was very smooth.
