This wine displays very little aromatics and less flavor. After being open for a few hours a little floral flavor comes through. Every torrontes I've had has been better. ($8)

Initial Impresison: Very nice. Some upfront lemon with medium mouthfeel. Refreshing After a day: Upfront lemon and citrus has diminished and a little more vanilla.

Torrontes is one of the most unknown, underrated (and underpriced!) wines out there. This is a great example - a delicious quaffer, very floral, easy-drinking, and summery. This doesn't have quite the acidic backbone of some of its higher-priced siblings. and there's a slightly chalky sensation on the palate, but for $10 (on sale for $7), the QPR is great.

(100% Torrontes) Was not familiar with this grape from Argentina and was pleasantly surprised. Very nice floral aroma with a sweet taste and soft acidity. Enjoyed it!

Good nose, picking up citrus. Medium body, very pale in color. Initially sweet, but then quickly with the citrus-tart. Flavorful across the mid palate with a bit of a lingering finish. All qualitites of a very good wine.

Torrontes - floral, perfume laden, tropical with lovely mouth feel and filled with decadent stone fruits; this wine is not any of that. I had high expectations for this bottle of value Torrontes given the acclaim awarded this producers Malbec, yet it totally falls flat. Aromatically challenged and the only tasting note I could make was that of summertime green grapes ($2.39 a pound at the Super) and a bit of light oak. Passss!

Good inexpensive white featuring honey, orange peel, floral and a nice perfume quality on the nose.

Stimmel's Market: Malbec vs Carménère (Bowling Green, OH): Floral mineral nose. Oddly flabby. Slightly rich, very flavorful. Lighty soapy sensation on the mid-palate and finish. Very distinctive. $10
