The 2011 Torrontes offers up enticing aromas of peach, melon, floral, and tropical fruit. Medium-bodied, dry, savory, and nicely proportioned, this lengthy effort will deliver plenty of enjoyment over the next 1-2 years.
90 points - The Wine Advocate (December 2011)
Good pale yellow. Sexy, almost gewurztraminer-like aromas of licorice, wild herbs, flowers and mint are at once bright and exotic. Juicy, saline and dry but with noteworthy texture and intensity to the ripe flavors of lavender, verbena and botanical herbs. Nothing austere about this serious, soil-driven torrontes. Finishes tactile and persistent, with a lightly saline quality.
