Wie wir heute erfahren haben, ist Jorge Riccitelli, der Chefweinmacher von Bodega Norton aus dem argentinischen Mendoza, vom renommierten amerikanischen Weinmagazin »Wine Enthusiast« als „Weinmacher des Jahres 2012” ausgezeichnet worden. In der Laudatio schreibt das Magazin über den sympathischen und stets mit einem Lachen anzutreffenden 63-jährigen Riccitelli:

„Jorge Riccitelli has been working as Chief Winemaker of Bodega Norton since 1992, after his long experience in other regions of the country. Today Jorge Riccitelli is one of the models of Argentina's viticulture considering his expertise, the unmistakable style of his wines, his high adaptability to over 60 markets where Bodega Norton's wines are uncorked day by day, as well as his versatility to make both entry level wine and limited editions of high-end wines. He is and always will be a model for the new generation of young winemakers, who are the future of Argentina's viticulture. But above all, Jorge Riccitelli is a great human being with a unique charisma and all the family of Bodega Norton is proud of him and his nomination for the Winemaker of the year 2012 by the prestigious magazine Wine Enthusiast.”
