Piattelli Torrontés comes from the Torrontés Riojano grape, a crisp and complex grape considered the best of the sub-varietals. Grown at 5,890 feet elevation, where extreme thermal amplitudes produce grapes bursting with flavor. Piattelli Torrontés is an elegant rendition of this varietal showcasing the freshness and floral qualities this wine is known for, moderated lightly with oak. Crushed gently in our gravity-flow winery and fermented at 55.4°F, the juice was kept free from harsh flavors throughout the winemaking process. Delicious paired with spicy foods.
Pale yellow in color, this Torrontés has great local typicity, highlighting its tropical profile. Floral aromas of jasmine are present, as well as exotic and citrus fruits, such as lime and lemon peel. In the mouth, it opens up beautifully, inviting to drink it thanks to its citrus notes of grapefruit and herbs. It is balanced and has a persistent finish. We recommend enjoying it with a delicious and aromatic salad, a crab bowl and some ceviche. Best serve at 9°-12° Recommended aging: 2 years maximum.
