Norton Reserva Malbec 2008, a great Lunlunta Vineyard and a classic value


Norton Reserva Malbec 2008, By Bodegas Norton, USD 15

Great Malbec from Lunlunta vineyards in Maipu Departament of Central Mendoza. Nice sweet and sharp fruits with gentle tannins chocolate and vanilla. Not timid at all. Balenced to make it even all through the palate and aftertaste. To enjoy this fruity driven up to 4 years but surely nice down the 7-8 years road. A 90 points malbec with great typicity and attractiveness. Great value premium red.

Lunlunta gives this fine and elegant malbec nicely completed by oak this time (to see the opposite look for Paradigma or Pura Sangre By Angel Mendoza from Domaine St Diego).
