Mandarin oranges slightly salted and garnished with hibiscus, jasmine and lavendar flowers. Very tropical and floral with some salinity. Very delicious!

Very sweet. All in the altitude of Salta. Ok for $8 on a hot beach day.

Fruity with complexity.

Crisp and extraordinarily fragrant, filled with striking floral aromas of orange and jasmine blossom. On the palate, vibrant notes of peach, ripe pineapple and fresh herbs lead to a refreshing zing of acidity at the finish.

Lots of floral character, crisp, bright citrus flavors. Mellows after opening. Excellent with grilled fish tacos!

Orange blossom, rose, peach, lemon, & mango with notes of vanilla; I really liked the nose. Tastes of lemon & lime zest, baked peach, pear. Nice body, mouthfeel & bright acid with long finish. Balanced. If you want a good white under $10 this would a good choice.

Highly recommend it! Dry, with elements of old yellow bit bitter apple and pear skin, fennel, plantain. A masculine Torrontes for once. Bravo, Alamos! Please try this with grilled seafood or especially Branzino.
