Kaiken 2012 Terroir Series Torrontés (Salta)

Country: Argentina / Terroir Series
Variety: Torrontés Other
Winery: Kaiken / Salta

With pungent, hard-driving aromas of lychee, tropical fruits and scented baby powder, this is varietally correct on the nose. In the mouth, vital acidity affords cut, while the flavors are of tropical and citrus fruits. In general, Torrontés has its limits, but this example is fresh and well made.
