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.

(Pascual Toso Torrontés Maipú Vineyards, Mendoza) Clean, fresh, and tropical, with notes of guava, pineapple, star fruit, tangerine, lemon, lime, and pink rose, this is a modern, dry, round, creamy, and lively Torrontés. Special Report: Argentina

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
