Tasting- Norton Sauvignon Blanc

Name: Norton Sauvignon Blanc 2012
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: $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: The nose was very sweet and had hints of tangerine. Overall the wine had a light body and a bit of a hollow mid pallet. The finish was very dry, something I do not particularly care for. I tasted this wine without food.
