Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaThis traditional method sparkling wine is the pinnacle of the sparkling pyramid at Bodegas Norton, sourced from grapes at 1300m in the Uco Valley.

The crisp, apricot pithy palate carries a gentle cushion of tangerine, mandarin and quince through a crisp, persistent finish. Bubbles are fine and the acidity is lively and chalk-laced. Tasted at the winery in February 2015.Tasted: 29 July 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| NF | $16.28 | 750ml | NLC |
