2/14 Tasting - Norton Torrontes

Name: Norton Torrontes
Variety: Torrontes
Region: Mendoz
Country: Argentina
Year: 2011
Price: $5.95

Shop'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: My nose detected hints of sweet fruits especially apples.  Although it smelled sweet, it was a dry wine that had nutty flavors.  This wine also had a short finish.

I did not drink this wine with food.
