Tasting - Gouguenheim Torrontes

Name:  Gouguenheim Torrontes
Variety:  100% Torrontes
Region:  Mendoza
Country:  Argentina
Year:  2012
Price:  $9.95

Winery review:  The 2012 Torrontes comes from Chilecito in La Rioja. It has a light floral nose with touches of lemon peel and nectarine. The palate is crisp and taut, showing far more vivacity and fruit that the nose implied, finishing with a flourish of apricot and white peach. Drink now.

My review: This wine was peachy with lemon and other citrus fruit on the nose. On the palate, this wine was very acidic and crisp and the citrus flavors really came out at the backend.

Food:  Did not have with food
