Tasting - Norton Torrontes

Name: Norton Torrontes

Variety: Xarel-lo, Parellada and Macabeo
Region: Cuyo
CountryArgentina
Year: 2011
Price: $5.95
Critic Review: Greenish yellow with hints of gold, this Torrontés has intense aromas of white peach, rose petal, and jasmine. Norton Torrontés2011 is pleasant and well balanced on the palate.
My Review:I thought this wine also smelled sweet and also tasted a little tart. At the same time this wine was significantly less dry. It was interesting in how it had very similar tastes to the first wine but since it was not dry it tasted extremely different.
No food was eaten with this tasting.
