Sip like a local Argentinian with our Cien por Ciento Torrontés. Lively aromas, exotic fruit flavor and supple, oak-derived sweetness make this wine an impressive example of this native grape’s stylistic versatility. Along with Malbec, Torrontés is considered one of Argentina’s two signature varieties. This light-skinned grape was born from a natural crossing between the North African variety, Muscat of Alexandria, and various native South American grape varieties. This highly aromatic grape has well-established roots all over Argentina.

WINE REGION:
Mendoza
Mendoza is the heart of Argentinian wine production. It was here where a previously little-known French grape variety called Malbec became a global superstar. With its extreme altitudes and Andean climate, Mendoza nurtures its vineyards in dramatic sun-drenched plateaus set against snow-capped peaks. At these elevations, the intense UV light ripens grapes in a unique way, working with the cold mountain air to create gloriously supple and expressive wines with bold yet brightly aromatic fruit. Mendoza's high-quality varietals from Bonarda, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are also notable, as are its fine Torrontés, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from sub-regions such as Maipú, Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley.

TASTING NOTES:
Coconut
Grapefruit
White Flowers
Bright white flower aromas enthusiastically greet the nose, accompanied by fresh citrus. The palate is lightweight, but unctuous textures create the impression of a fuller body. Coconut and fleshy grapefruit flavors present themselves on the first sip and carry through to a silky finish.
