Tasting- Maipe, Torrontés 2016

Name: MaipeVariety: TorrontesRegion: SaltaCountry:  ArgentinaYear: 2016Price: $7.96


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.
Best enjoyed in its youth either by itself, or as a wonderful partner with smoked meats, mild to medium-strong cheeses, seafood and a great partner for spicy food as well." --Wine.com

My Personal Review: A floral wine with hints of lilac and pear. This wine had a sharp acidic taste that lingered on the tongue after drinking. For an acidic drink I found this to be quite good but enjoyed the aroma much more than the lingering taste! 


I tasted this wine on its own without food.
