Sunday Business Post

"This wine, from 15 to 20-year-old vines, is rich and inky dark. Bursting with soft blackberry, there are touches of spice, vanilla notes and a chewy, lightly tannic finish. It is flashy and pleasurable and yearns for thick fillet steaks in a black pepper sauce."
Tomás Clancy - 28 February 2010

"Argentina is climbing high up my list of countries offering high quality at low prices—and Norton is among its star producers. Just try this polished Malbec. Round, juicy and subtly spicy, it smells like an autumn fruit fair. Damsons, blackberries, plums... mmmm."
