| TASTING NOTE: The apple here is Matías Riccitelli, son of legendary Argentine winemaker Jorge Riccitelli. Matías was brought up surrounded by excellence and the drive to further Argentine winemaking. This floral, fresh, fruity Torrontés is sourced from vines over 40 years old and was fermented and aged in concrete eggs. Perfect to enjoy now with seafood or crispy baked tofu. |
