Tasting - Alamos Torrontes

Alamos Torrontes 2013
Name: Alamos
Variety: Torrontes
Region: Salta
Country: Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: $10.99

Winery review: The intense mountain sunlight and pure snowmelt water of the Andes gives the Alamos Torrontes its explosive floral aromatic character and bright citrus flavors. This crisp, refreshing wine is excellent with spicy empanadas and grilled fish.

My review: The nose of this wine smelled like apricots and orange blossom. It tasted tart and very floral, like a field of lavender, and had a grassy flavor. Unique and enjoyable.
