Torrontés is fresh and aromatic with moderate acidity. Smooth texture and
mouthfeel. This pale-lemon, straw colored wine has a distinct floral
characteristic with notes of peach and honeysuckle. To the mouth, stone
fruits, citrus, and honeysuckle with tropical and mineral tones. Crisp,
fresh and delightfully complex with a dry finish.
