Tasting - Gouguenheim Torrontés

Name: Gouguenheim Torrontés
Variety: 100% Torrontés
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: I thought the nose of this wine was a little musky.  The palette of this wine was very refreshing, with notes of lemon and lime present in this wine.  A great value!

I tasted this on its own with no food.
