@ESF’s Description is quite accurate. Decent stuff, not amazing.

Very pleasant, if a bit unusual for the venerable Argentine producer: straw colored w/big time aromas of white flowers, tropical fruit, orchard fruit, bit leesy & waxy. Med bodied, oily, sluggish acidity, but flavors reflected nose, went down easy

Quite tart with a slight sweet finish. Lots of circus and peach and minerals.

A blend of Semillon and Chenin Blanc grapes, aromatic with minerality and a rich finish. The bouquet is stronger than the aromas of the fruits on the nose.

This was a bit weird. With air and some warmth it wound up being an ok match with scallops.

Lemon peels and citrus aroma, sweet entry, with abundance of acidity and saline taste, good balance, also buttery and can sense some oak influence, medium finish. Excellent.
