Tasting - "2012 Norton Sauvignon Blanc"


Name: Bodega Norton Sauvignon
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Cuyo, Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: $12
Shop/wine critic/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: On the nose, there were mild citrus aromas and also floral aromas. For a white wine, it tasted more full bodied than I expected it to be. There were some hints of grapefruit and herbs. Fresh and fruity on the palate. I had this wine without food.
