Do you like Thai or Indian food? Well this is the perfect partner for those spices. This pure Torrontes comes from the Santa Rosa area of Mendoza where the altitude is lower and ripening comes sooner. This aromatic varietal gives wonderful notes of rose petals and Turkish Delight on the nose and it is light, refreshing and with a fine acidity on the palate.

Why we like this wine
This wine shows all of the classical style of high quality Torrontes but without any oily notes that can all too often make the wines seem overblown and also make them boring to drink. This is an ideal white wine to balance against spicy foods.
