1895 Colección Rosado 2020
Trade Tools
Argentina / Mendoza
Paying tribute to the founding year of Bodega Norton, the 1895 Colección wines capture the spirit of Argentina. Each wine in the collection showcases fresh, approachable styles meant for everyday enjoyment. The Rosado, made from Malbec grapes, offers a refreshing traditional rosé profile with fresh, bright acidity allowing for a clean, crisp finish.
Harvest Note
Early harvest, healthy grapes and vines, ideal temperatures, deep wine concentration and an anticipated end of the harvest season. The 2020 harvest began around September/October after a mild winter, low amounts of snow and some late spring frosts. December and January days were very warm with scarce precipitation which caused the grapes to mature early. Grape harvest occurred earlier than usual this year, in January. 2020 was a truly healthy year both regarding the fruit and the vineyards. We experienced a decrease in quantity but a significant rise in quality. Regarding the wines, this vintage will display concentrated, delicious and memorable wines.
Tasting Note
This wine features a pale salmon pink color, with floral and herbal aromas. It is a well-balanced wine, with a refreshing acidity, a delicate texture and a pleasant finish.
