Winery Review: This is an aromatic floral Torrontés with hints
of air freshener and bath oil on the nose. A palate with zesty acidity frames
crisp flavors of citrus pulp and peel. A racy finish tastes of lime before
showing patented varietal bitterness.
My Review: This wine smelled like citrus and crisp apples. It tasted like battery acid and I was hit with a STRONG lemon flavor and a lime aftertaste. The aftertaste was very tart and bitter in my opinion, and the wine made the front of my throat feel like it was burning. I was not a fan, it reminded me a bit too much of cheap vodka.
I did not taste this wine with food.
