Shop/wine critic/winery review:
This Argentinean Torrontes is bright and vibrant with notes of citrus and rock melon.
The palate is reputably rich and inviting with flavors of crisp apple, lemon sorbet
and ripe peach.
Your Review: This wine I actually had a week ago or so, and never wrote notes on it. I was excited to try another Torrontes after my first on awhile back. Thankfully I took notes. It was a lighter colored wine with some nice crisp fruit. They say rock melon, but I have no idea what that means. I liked that this was not a sweet wine, but very fruity. Apple and lemon were noted in that tart flavor. I also may have noted something creamier, like a mango or peach? Not quite sure. All in all a good wine. Makes me want to try some more.
