Color: pretty golden with a hint of greenish tinge. On the nose: Apricot, honey, citrus, white peaches. On the palate: Initially, a little sour acidity. However, nice creamy medium mouthfeel. The flavors are a bit muted but kind of citrusy, lemon grass, with a dry medium-length finish. There's a hint of dried apricot aftertaste. This wine, however, is not balanced. The alcohol is not well integrated and it comes off too hot to be refreshing (a wine like this SHOULD be refreshing). The transitions from attack, to mid-palate, to finish are also a bit awkward.

(PANNOTIA TORRONTES) #2; COLOR-same as Sur De Los (SDL); NOSE-tighter than SDL, little Sugar Cane & floral aspect; TASTE-much more body than SDL, much structure & creaminess than I expected, lot of apricot & hint of apple, not as crisp, finish is better; GV-87

Waited too long on this vinetage. It was actually a 2006.

Very strange nose and palate. I think flowers is a pretty good description (as stated on the back of the bottle).

Very fruity. A little sweet & syrupy. Some flavors of pears and peaches. Very tasty and quite good for the price.
