Interesting white blend. It has a sauv blanc bite to the finish. The torrontes is a grape I've never had. Overall a nice mineral chalky flavour with pineapple or pineapple peel notes. A baseline pick of the week selection.

Apr 12th, 2015The blend is 60% Torrontes and 40% Sauvignon Blanc and is hand picked in small batches from their family owned vineyards, some of which are 90 years old! Federico made the wine with Estela Perinetti, a famous Argentine winemaker, she makes the Luca wines as well as many others. It is very aromatic of Tropical flowers and fruit. The mouthfeel is quite nice, really well balanced, elegant and refreshing. The finish is crisp and that is where you pick up the notes of the Sauvignon Blanc. 10$-15$ CAN
