Bodega Norton Colección 1895 Mendoza Malbec 2022

Deep red color with aromas of violet and plum. Juicy, ripe strawberry and plum on the palate with smooth tannins and a harmonious finish.

2022 was a challenging but rewarding vintage. Early frost reduced potential yields by nearly 25%, while late summer rains delayed harvest and threatened rot. Warm and dry days in March wrapped up an otherwise cool vintage, restoring balance to the wines. The skilled viticulturalists at Bodega Norton were rewarded with wines of freshness and concentration with moderate alcohol levels.
