  CUFFTHIS' note is pretty spot on, and I also thought to myself "I would peg this as torrontés blind, due to the pretty, sweet, and floral aromatics, and bone dry and mineral palate. Light to medium yellow in color, with aromas of honeysuckle, lilac, overripe peach, and a touch of herbs and minerals. Light to medium bodied, with med(+) acidity, and bone dry, with flavors of bitter lemon and lime citrus, pear, and notable minerality which lingers despite the shortish finish. Definitely more complex on the nose, but at $9 I'm not mad. Worked well with spring vegetable risotto.

  Consistent with previous bottles. Pale yellow in color, this wine showed very aromatic notes of white flowers, orange peel, peach, pineapple and rose petals. The mouth feel revealed bracing acidity, good lift and strong citrus and melon notes, all in a bone dry profile. The finish was shorter than expected but the strong acidity stayed firm.
  
  Purchased for $9US, this wines strong aromatics are fun to experience and make it an excellent aperitif. If tasted blind, I'd say it was Torrontes.
