Colección del Valle Momentos Torrontés
La Rioja, Cuyo, Argentina
I can certainly appreciate the varietal and style created, not my first choice in a white wine, but definitely growing on me.
Moderate floral tones on the nose, white Flowers and some kind of tropical fruit maybe dried papaya or guava. Has body, lingering viscosity. More floral notes come through on the palate along with some unripened pineapple and faint white pepper notes. Lingering body and acidity. Again, this is a lot of wine for it's price point and not to be overlooked. Better than Torrontes I've had at twice the price which were too over the top floral. Good intro into what Torrontes has to offer.

Floral and fragrant. Rough around the edges but good for the low price.
