Bodegas Monteviejo
Petite Fleur Torrontés
Valle De Uco, Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
On the nose; green apple, white peach, pineapple, citrus blend, green melon chalky volcanic minerals and yellow spring flowers.
On the palate; the palate is loads as ripe, slightly waxy leaner fruits than the nose. Then, the volcanic mineral takes over the palate, cheeks and gums. That’s why it’s referred to as the liars wine in Argentina. The palate fruits match the nose; green apple, white peach, pineapple, citrus blend, green melon and yellow spring flowers. Great acidity with a finish that runs from bright fruit to heavy minerality.
Photos of, the Andes from their back patio. Artwork in their hallways.

Normally I don't like torrontes. But this was wonderfully floral and crisp. No soapiness.
