About the wine
This fresh and fruity white is beloved in Argentina - what say you?
- This white is a surprise and delight, famous for its floral nose and fresh fruit finish – think white peaches and lemony tang on the tongue.
- With your funding, José traveled to the northern town of Cafayate in Salta – home to Argentina's best Torrontes vines. High altitudes here are perfect for preserving fresh flavor.
- Torrontes isn't a wine many American wine drinkers know, but once you try a sip, we think you'll *torrun* back for more.
Best before
For the freshest, fullest flavors possible, drink this within a year of receiving it.
Serving advice
Be sure to chill your wine to around 46-50º F before serving.
Food match
For an authentic Argentinian pairing, try this Torrontes with humitas; a Native South American dish of savory steamed fresh corn cakes made from a mixture of freshly ground corn, onion, garlic, cheese, eggs and cream, placed inside corn husks and steamed.
