Grapefruit and peach flavors are followed by floral notes and that distinctive white pepper spice, so typical of this variety crisp, light, and fruit-forward, a crowd. pleasing interpretation of Austria's signature white grape It is a subtle wine with a complex aroma of white fruits, citrus fruits, and tropical fruits. It presents in the mouth a round and very tasty flavor thanks to the fact that it maintains an interesting acidity, is very balanced and harmonious between its nose and mouth, very versatile when it comes to bringing it to the table, and a great potential for storage.
In 1885, the Buenos Aires to Mendoza railway opened, cementing the significance of this emerging wine-growing region high in the Andean foothills. One visitor to Mendoza, an English engineer called Edmund Norton, was so struck by the beauty and potential he saw there that he established a winery bearing his name, and in 1895 planted the first vines in Mendoza’s Lujan de Cuyo district. Almost a century later, Gernot Langes-Swarovski was similarly struck by Mendoza and its vineyards; in 1989, he acquired Bodega Norton and set about transforming it into the world-renowned winery it is today. Both men rightly recognized the special nature of the area. At 900-1,100 meters, the altitude moderates the temperature while exposing the vines to more ultraviolet light. The result is whites packed with vibrant flavor and good natural acidity, and well-structured, food-friendly reds.
