Ripe pear and peach, with maybe a touch of honey. Good acidity and a fair amount of minerality on the finish.

Golden to golden-green; aromatic nose with rich white fruit, aromatic floral; palate is medium bodied, high acid, lemon-lime, very fresh; medium finish. This is fantastic for the price. Just the right blend of aromatic, fruity, with superb high acidity and still completely dry. 88-90

Decent mid-week with some simple grilled mahi-mahi. Has a pear, apple and grassy quality to it. Easy drinking white.

Too soapy, needs more acid to make it fresher on the palate.

On the nose clean grass and a lemon-mineral salinity. Medium acid that stays centered on the palate alongside the honeydew melon, kiwi, and kaffir lime. Fresh, balanced, and affordable.

Very fragrant nose. Strong elderflower and other floral notes, with just a hint of tropical fruit aromas. Limited flavors of any kind, but it is bright and vibrant. Medium to long finish with fading and recurring elderberry notes. All in all, one of the better expressions of Torrontes that I've had the privilege of consuming.

Pale colour with a fragrant nose which became more aromatic with time. Good fruit on the nose (elderflower, elderberry) and good legs. A very rich and complex palate - more than the pale colour promises. Good fruit - peach with citrus (grapefruit) and honey developing in the glass. Good acidity and balance. Some aromatic spice and subtle phenolics developed as it warmed and opened. Nice wine that is more complex than earlier vintages (from memory). Very food friendly.

One of the better recent vintages of this high-QPR wine, showing a pretty, pale straw color and offering up aromas of green melon, white stone fruit and white flowers. Needs some warmth and air to show well, then flavors of Crenshaw melon, white peach and some sweet lime become really pleasing, along with a nice acidity for balance and light-medium weight. Very food friendly, and finishes clean and refreshing with good length. A good reference for a quality Torrontes.

Apple,grapefruit and lichee. Not overly complex but lively and fun. A bargain

Palest lemon in color. Tropical fruit nose of pineapple, melon, and guava, as well as a pungent floral note, like blooming gardenias. There’s also some honey and a sort of chalky mineral character. The flavor profile on the palate matches the nose but with more weight than I would have expected, quite high, lemony acid, and a juicy, perhaps not entirely dry finish.

good intro to torrontes, price is right. Solid apple, pineapple flavors, but a bit one dimensional. Maybe a bit of over production here. For a few dollars more you can get much more serious, fruit intensive, complex torrontes.

No detailed notes, but a nice fruity wine with a good hint of acidity. Suitable for sipping and food. Will by more at this QPR.

Aromatic nose with pineapple, citrus. Unique palate - almost SB-like with some Riesling mixed in. Clean and refreshing but with good flavor intensity. Great overall and outstanding value.

Notes of pear, peach and apple aroma, very nice 2 minutes after open. Fruity and a little tanginess, green apple and grapefruit. Lemony too. Seems a very good value.
