Tasting - Maipe Torrontes

Name: Maipe Torrontes
Variety: Torrontes
Region, Country: Salta, Argentina
Year: 2016
Price: $7.95

Winery Review: "Spring-like nose of fresh white peaches, pears, green apple, green melon and hints of jasmine and rose petals. On the palate, it has a beautiful structure and acidity along with fruit flavors and plenty of body. Well-balanced, this wine displays a pleasant freshness with citrus notes and a long finish."

My Review: This wine has an obviously sweet scent that is a bit more in your face. I thought this was a bit floral, like maybe rose. Mostly I found this to have a lot sweet tree fruit flavors with just a hint of tartness on the finish. I did not try this wine with food.
