Striking deep brilliant purple color. The nose is ripe and full, reminiscent of dark cherries, plums, and chocolate with undertones of loam and earth. In the mouth, the wine displays a profound core of ripe, blackberry jam fruit, lengthening into a sophisticated weighty finish coupled with an elegant silkiness.As the former owner of Bodegas Norton, Ricardo Santos was the first winemaker to export Malbec to the United States over 30 years ago. Some call him the father of modern Malbec. Ricardo was an architect that decided to forgo that career to pursue his passion for wine. At the peak of Norton's popularity, Ricardo sold the winery and retired. He is back in the game now, along with his two sons, Patricio as winemaker, and Pedro as head of marketing, he makes two wines, both hand harvested and organically farmed.
