Robert Parker
"The 2015 Torrontès shows the white flower and orange peel notes typical of the grape variety but in a subtle way, with some citric and balsamic touches. The palate is very fresh, with sweet-and-sour aromas and a fresh, dry finish. Ideal with light cuisine." (Wine Advocate 2016 - Robert Parker)

Note and review by M. JACQUES C. Published on 15/05/2018
I visited the Calchaqui Valley and love Torrontes. I had already noticed that Torrontes doesn't age well!!! I wanted to try it again, but I was terribly disappointed by this 2015 wine. It's completely gone. Freshness still present but aromas exhausted. I should point out that I am a winemaker. Too bad!
