Celebrating my mom's birthday in absentia I opened a bottle of this Torrontes from Argentina. This is Argentina's trademark white.
On first pour the wine has a slight green apple hue. A subtle perfumed nose is followed by a tight edgy alcoholic burn and and a confused unbalanced finish. The label suggests it be served cold and but I had opened it at room temperature. I for one feel that chilling a wine often intended to hide imperfections. In this case it is not just suggested it is necessary.
