| Salta is a tiny region that contributes only a fraction of Argentina's total wine production, but stressing quality over quantity has always been Salta's priority, particularly when it comes to Argentina's signature white grape, Torrontés. The examples crafted here are distinctly aromatic, fresh and pure. This wine from Catena is perennially pretty and fruity. A popular take on a popular variety. |
