I very nice white wine that I had with my family while having the dinner. I like the fact that it is not too citrus and also it has a quite oily taste that lasts quite long.. If I had any complaints I'd say the after taste should be longer.

Enough fruit flavors and aromas to keep it interesting from first sip to last sip. Agree with other reviewers that it is an excellent wine for patio dining.

Not the most technically astounding bottle, but the Torres Vina Esmeralda is one of my most enduringly favorite summertime whites, one that I buy multiples of any time I see it. It will make your patio dinner complete, no matter what you're eating.

Mas La Plana Tasting with Miguel Torres (Jaleo - Washington, DC) : After the reds, we sipped this crisp, sweet 85% Moscatel/15% Gewurztraminer blend. Smells of lychee and orange blossom. On the palate, a combination of sweet nectarine, white peach and gooseberry. Also some tangy, peppery aspects. A nice palate cleanser or summer sipper.

On nose M+ Intensity dominated by tropical fruit,(banana, pineapple) with hint of perfume and citrus. On palate Medium-dry, M+ body, M+ acidity, M intensity. Nice balanced of sweet with acidity with clear touch of citrus. Less perfumed and complex compared to what can be found in 2010, but, still, a nice balance wine good to drink on it's own or pair with less flavoured seafood. Drink now, GOOD quality!

Very floral in the nose with orange blossoms and other white flowers. In the mouth honeyed jamin tea, quince, melon with a long finish. A little more acidity separates from being a classic wine.

The perfect wine for the ladies out there. When you bring the glass close to the nose you feel like you are ina forest of banana trees. Nicely balanced acidity and long ending. Value for money on high levels.

Luminous yellow-green color. Perfumed nose with typical, floral aromas of Muscat and Gewürztraminer: roses, mead, pear juice, raisins, peach and some spice. After awhile, a faint sweaty, pungent note appears as well. The off-dry palate has some lovely acidity with flavors of sweet peach, steely minerality, mead, floral complexity, some green apple and a hint of citrus fruits. However, the wine comes across a bit hollow and thin - it lacks the depth suggested by the nose and even the …

The nose is very flowery, with sweet white peach & candy ~ The palate is off dry with slighty grippy acidity with flavors of sweet oranges, vanilla, perfumey & a slightly bitter finish ~ An enjoyable wine & worked beautifully with assorted sushi

Perfectly acceptable spring-time quaffer - lots of aromatic white flowers, slightly sweet on the palate but with zesty freshness. Decent, if a little simple. Nice for the bbq.

Clean and light. Wonderful peachy-tropical flavors that level off onto a platform of minerality. Lovely finish, a nice pairing for salmon. And for $8?? A no-brainer.

Aromatic whites wine-tasting, Le Petit Sommelier restaurant, Athens, Greece. Light yellow-green. Rose-petals, tropical fruits and nutmeg on the nose. Light-bodied, sweetish with moderate acidity and a short aftertaste. Not special. Some tasters liked it though.

Pale green coloured, very fragrant as you expect for 85% Mosacatel and 15% Gewürztraminer. The nose is flowery and perfumed with a hint of minerality underneath. Lush and juicy with green apple, lychee, ripe melon and a touch of the classic Turkish Delight from the Gewurtz. A blast of white pepper spice on the finish rounds it off nicely.

Très fruité, des saveurs d'agrumes bien présentes. S'est très bien agencé avec des fruits de mer dans une sauce citronnée. Vraiment un blanc fort intéressant, qui semble être fait pour passer bien partout.

Je m'y plait bien à boire un vin blanc de Torrès, année après année, cette maison ne cesse de me rendre un rapport qualité prix bien au dela de la moyenne du marché. Bien qu'influencer par les temps modernes, la production des vins de Torres restent très distingué. Le vina esmeralda nous rappelle une bouche de petit fruits d'agrume mélanger / grillés au beurre avec une présence de banane frite... Cette présence de bannane qui est souvent très perçue au …

OK ... maybe it was a little past prime, but it went very well with the spicy sauteed shrimp with black beans and rice. Some pear and stone fruit(?) on the nose and palate with just enough sweetness to cut the heat down. Great acidity. It's a wonderful bargain.
