Bodega Norton Malbec Reserva Mendoza 2019

91 pts Wine Advocate
Their top-selling 2018 Reserva Malbec now has a majority of grapes from the Valle de Uco, and they now only use second, third and fourth use barrels for the elevage, while in the past, there were 30% new barriques. It also has a more expressive nose of fresh fruit from the Valle de Uco. It has a touch of sweet spices intermixed with the black fruit and floral aromas, a commercial and approachable expression of the grape, with a medium-bodied palate and very fine tannins. An easy, approachable but serious textbook oak-aged Malbec in a very good and balanced year. They make 600,000 bottles of this
