  Remarkably similar to a torrontes tasting from Trumpter some 5 years ago. Might be a little fruit salad-simple at first glance / sip but the friendly simplicity really does grow on you. Some broadness and a little fat points to 90s chardonnay but some bitter fruit late keep things smart. That said the rhone-like oil is really quite attractive. Fully mature at 4yrs me thinks.

  WSET Advanced (level 3) - Classroom Tastings - WEEK 10 (Texas Wine School, Houston, Tx): WSL3 WK10
  
  A: Pale lemon green
  N: Pronounced Intensity
  Petrol (tertiary), pine needles, pineapple, lychees, lots of white flowers, ROSES, orange peel, pepper. Reminiscent of gewürztraminer.
  Developing.
  P: Dry. Medium acid, medium alcohol (actually it was High ~14.3%), medium (+) intensity, medium (+) body and finish.
  C: Very Good Quality. A little imbalanced. Drink now, don't age. Pair with Thai food. Lovely aromatic grape. I will have Torrentes from the hilly northern Salta region again.
