Winery's Review- Torrontes the emblematic white variety in Argentina, had a floral and aromatic profile, with a refreshing and light spicy finish.

Wine Folly- Argentina's very own white is actually a group of 3 varieties that are natural crossing with Muscat of Alexandria. Torrontes Riojano is considered the best. Even though Torrontes can smell sweet, it's usually dry to taste, making it a great match with savory dishes that feature exotic spices, fruit, and aromatic herbs. (177)

My Review- Fruity and fresh smell, on the first sip it was refreshing and got the taste of fresh fruit. I paired the wine with cocktail shrimp and cocktail sauce which was a great pair to the spice of the sauce. It didn't affect the taste to much, it made it more enjoyable to drink.
