| TASTING NOTE: A benchmark Torrontés with an intense, perfumed nose followed by a balanced palate that's full of concentrated ripe fruit and freshness. Zesty notes of grapefruit are apparent, combining with subtle floral hints and crisp citric acidity to create a very fine example, which emphasises how special Calchaquí is for this variety. Drinking Window: 2018-2021. Score - 93 (Andy Howard, decanter.com, undated) |
