✨ Technical Specifications
Bodega Norton's Cosecha Especial Extra Brut is a sparkling wine crafted from Chardonnay grapes grown in the high-altitude vineyards of Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza. This sparkling wine represents Norton's long-standing tradition of sparkling wine production in Argentina, utilizing the Charmat method to capture the vibrant, fresh fruit character of the grapes. The cool night breezes from the Andes Mountains help maintain the essential acidity in the grapes, resulting in a sparkling wine with elegant bubbles, aromas of white peach, citrus, and a delicate touch of brioche from yeast contact. It is a celebratory staple in Argentina, reflecting the winery's pioneering spirit in the Primera Zona of Mendoza.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1895 by English engineer Edmund James Palmer Norton, Bodega Norton is one of Argentina's most historic wineries, situated in Perdriel within the celebrated Luján de Cuyo subregion of Mendoza. In 1989, the estate was acquired by Austrian entrepreneur Gernot Langes-Swarovski, who introduced cutting-edge European winemaking technology while preserving its heritage of century-old, ungrafted vines. Bodega Norton emphasizes meticulous high-altitude viticulture beneath the Andes, crafting wines that seamlessly blend mineral complexity with vibrant fruit expression. The estate is globally celebrated for its benchmark Malbecs, including the flagship Gernot Langes and Norton Reserva, alongside distinguished Cabernet Sauvignon, crisp white varietals, and refined sparkling wines.
