| Bright, medium straw colour. Intense, very spicy, honeyed, ripe melon nose. Somewhat off dry (9 g/L residual sugar), medium-light bodied, spicy, honeyed, tangy, ripe melon-apple flavours with a crisp, unoaked finish. Hefty (13.9% alcohol), ready-to-drink and best with spicy dishes. Better than the 2011 (*+) released on January 5, 2013 at $14.95. |

| TASTING NOTE: Beginning with the entry-level Hermanos range, the 2012 Hermanos Torrontes from Cafayate in Salta is from 26-year-old vines. It has a superb bouquet of peach skin, pear and a hint of lime flower that has a Riesling-like personality. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins and a precise, mineral-rich finish that shows what Torrontes can do in the right hands. Excellent. Drink now-2016. Score - 92 (Neal Martin, erobertparker.com, Oct. 2012) |
