Tasting - Norton Sauvignon Blanc

Name: Norton Sauvignon Blanc
Variety: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: $12 (On Sale for $5.95)
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: Smell was very straightforward with citrus notes, mainly of pineapple.  The taste itself was a little more on the dry side with some pineapple and lemon coming through but not lingering for very long.  Texture was thin and it was a very simple, one note taste.  Overall not bad but nothing very memorable about it.  Think it might be better in the future to try with a light food like bread and cheese.
