Ripe red fruits, cassis and pepper on the nose, then a sweet-fruited palate with friendly tannins and spicy flavours. That is Norton Malbec Barrel Select 2023 in a sentence, and it explains why Malbec is Argentina's calling card. The colour is deep red with violet hues.
The Barrel Select name describes the winemaking. Norton ages 50% of the Malbec in French oak, then blends it back with wine kept in stainless steel. The result balances fresh fruit against the toasted, slightly smoky notes of the barrel. Grapes come from Mendoza vineyards planted above 4,000 feet. Wine Spectator gave it 90 points.
Pour it with grilled beef, empanadas or a burger night at home. It is an easy introduction to Argentine Malbec for anyone starting out, and a reliable house red for those who already know it. Imported by Ralph's, delivered across Metro Manila.
