Tasting: Maipe Torrontes 2016

Variety: Torrontes

Country: Argentina
Year: 2016
Price: $7.95 at Vintage Cellar, Regular $13

Shop Review87 – Wine Enthusiast "This is an aromatic floral Torrontés with hints of air freshener and bath oil on the nose. A palate with zesty acidity frames crisp flavors of citrus pulp and peel. A racy finish tastes of lime before showing patented varietal bitterness."

My Review: On the nose this wine gave hints of citrus, apple, some florals, and even a bit of grass. On the palate this wine was zesty with the acidity of the citrus lime and apple flavors. This wasn't my favorite wine, but I really think some food could have done it more justice.
This wine was not tasted with food.
