Norton Altura Malbec 2022, 75 cl

We are delighted to add this latest Norton wine onto our lists. The Altura’s origins are the superb Valle de Uco area within Mendoza, an area that is rapidly building a superb reputation amongst wine critics and drinkers. Using grapes picked at a staggering 1,300 metres above sea level the wine has superb concentration. Intense flavours of damson and mulberry mingle with spicy notes and yet never feels too ‘big’. Superb value.

Product Description

In 1885, the Buenos Aires to Mendoza railway opened, cementing the significance of this emerging wine-growing region high in the Andean foothills. Ten years later, Edmund Norton planted the first vines in Mendoza's Lujan de Cuyo district. At 900-1100 metres, the altitude moderates the temperature, causing an extended ripening season, and also expose the vines to more ultraviolet light, which encourages the development of colour and tannin in the black-skinned varieties. The result is whites packed with vibrant flavour and good natural acidity, and well-structured, food-friendly reds.

Tasting Notes

Superb intensity and depth of fruit.

Hand or machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid harsh chemicals or stain removers, which can affect the colour.
