Vintage Cellar review: Yellow colour with greenish nuances. Very intense aroma of fresh grapes, flower perfume and mature peaches. Fresh in the mouth. Light and easy to drink. Ideal with seafood, Thai and Chinese food.
My review: On the nose, this Torrontes is an explosion of fruit, candy, Fruitloops, Applejacks, and green apple aromas. Extreme themes of fruit and sweetness. However, it is pretty dry and mid-body weight. It tastes of fresh fruit and fruity cereal, similar to the nose. I would pair this Torrontes with a spicy Asian or seafood dish to help accentuate the aromas of the nose.
I had this wine without food.
