✨ Technical Specifications
Bodega Norton's Late Harvest Moscato, locally celebrated in Argentina as 'Cosecha Tardía', represents a delightful expression of sweet winemaking in the high-altitude terroirs of Mendoza. Crafted from grapes left on the vine to concentrate their natural sugars under the intense Andean sun, this wine benefits from the dramatic diurnal temperature shifts of the region, which preserve vital acidity. The winemaking process involves halting fermentation early through temperature control, leaving a luscious, naturally sweet profile brimming with aromatic intensity. It captures the playful, aromatic heritage of the Muscat grape, delivering a style that has become a beloved staple for gatherings and dessert courses across Argentina.
🍾 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.
