TASTING NOTE: Argentina's signature white grape, Torrontés, is fast becoming a go-to white for Vintages customers looking for a unique, fresh, crisp, food-friendly option for seafood. This example, from a popular producer, has a core of impressive acidity that keeps the juicy, fruity palate (think sweet lemon) zipping along. (Vintages panel, Oct. 2016) |
