| TORRONTÉS 2013 Calchaquí Valley, Salta |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
COLOMÉ |
| Bright extremely pale straw colour. Intense, very spicy, honeyed, lychee nose. Dry, medium-light bodied, very spicy, honeyed, lychee-driven, warm ripe apple puree flavours with a lingering, unoaked, faintly bitter finish. Comes in a surprisingly heavy bottle. Ready-to-drink. A tad better than the 2012 (*+) released on February 15, 2014 at $13.95. |

| TASTING NOTE: Very pale bright yellow. Pure, delicate, high-pitched perfume of rose petal and dusty brown spices. Brisk, tactile and quite dry but with an essentially supple texture--even a slightly glyceral character--to the flavors of grapefruit pith, lemon, flowers, spices and salty minerality. This serious yet seductive example of torrontes finishes with sneaky dusty persistence. Score - 91 (Stephen Tanzer, vinousmedia.com, March 2014) |
