Valle de Cafayate Torrontés

2020 vintage. Good example of its type. No oiliness, citrus pith, jasmine, gardenia, little grassiness.

This sharply focused Torrontés offers enticing floral lift and nuances of lychee, limestone, menthol and thyme. Its complex, expressive flavors of lemon, flowers and herbs are tactile and penetrating, and it finishes with gripping salty minerality. I could gulp this all through a summer’s day. $15.00 (Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, June 2019)

Jan 14th, 2024$17 Small nose. Notes of lemon, honeysuckle, rose, and peach. Light bodied. Off-dry. Medium acid. Low tannins. Low alcohol. This wine is very floral. It has notes of rose petals, geranium, lemon zest and peach on the palate. This is an interesting, floral, medium zesty wine with notes of peach coming through on the finish. First time drinking a Torrontes!
