White gold color. Aromas and flavors of floral soap, white flowers, lemon, and brie with a satiny, crisp, dry medium-to-full body and a warming, interesting, long finish with accents of lemon water and egg shell. Tart fruits make this a great wine to have ice cold on a warm day.

Argentina is well-known for its red wines; as far as whites, it is the local grape Torrontes and the international variety, Chardonnay, that are most important. We also use the term 'Other Argentine White' categorically to refer to Argentine wines made from blends of various white wine grapes.

Torrontes is a medium-bodied dry white with lovely aromatics of tropical fruit, apricot and orange blossom. Inexpensive versions are pleasant, but lack these perfumes, while the best examples are very expressive and offer excellent complexity. Torrontes is almost always unoaked and are made to be consumed fresh - within two to three years of the vintage. Pair with lighter fish or with Thai cuisine.

Chardonnay in Argentina is similar to examples from many countries; again, there are entry levels as well as examples that are richer on the palate. Aging in oak is common, but there are some steel-aged versions as well. Drink the latter versions young and pair with simple salads or shellfish, while the oak-aged examples are best consumed from two to four years, matched with most seafood or poultry.
