- Name: Norton Torrontes
- Variety: Torrontes
- Region: Mendoza
- Country: Argentina
- Year: 2011
- Price: $5.95
- Shop Review: Greenish yellow with hints of gold, this Torrontes has intense aromas of white peach, rose petal, and jasmine. Norton Torrontes 2011 is pleasant and well balanced on the palate.
- My Review: This wine had a nice, sweet smell but also a little sour due to hints of grapefruit. The flavor was almost floral in taste and maybe a bit peachy. It had a very smooth finish in my opinion and had a silky feel going down. I purchased this wine, it had some of the smoothest, calmest flavors of the bunch. Not too sweet and not too bland.
- Still no food
This is my first ever blog and will be a documented history of my wine experiences over the course of my last semester here at Virginia Tech. It is required for my Geography of Wine course with John Boyer but I plan to use it for my own personal enjoyment beyond the lifespan of this course as well.
