The 2023 Norton Altura Malbec is not just another Argentine Malbec – it’s a high-altitude expression that speaks in cooler tones, finer tannins, and vibrant fruit purity. Coming from the Uco Valley’s upper slopes, this wine is focused, structured, and bursting with blackberries and floral spice.
If the Reserva is plush, the Altura is poised. It’s Malbec with a mountain soul, and it shows.
Tasting Notes
Black cherry, wild violets, crushed stone, and white pepper. The texture is silky but firm, with a long mineral finish.
Perfect Pairings
Lamb skewers, grilled portobello burgers, duck confit, or bak kut teh with a wine glass upgrade.
Accolades
One of Norton’s most terroir-driven wines. Critics praise its precision, purity, and age-worthy finesse.
Vineyard & Terroir
Grown at over 1,200m above sea level in Uco Valley’s top micro-regions, where poor soils and cold nights yield complexity and lift.
Why We Love It
It’s proof that Malbec can be serious, structured, and downright sophisticated – without losing its Mendoza charm.
