Gorgeous cranberry color in the glass. Fresh cranberry and strawberry on the front of the palate, with a fruit-followed-by-oak short finish. Serves as a good compliment to a chicken caesar salad.

I love Torrontes. I do. This isn’t the first time I’ve announced my affection for the grape, and after tasting this Balbo Torrontes I know it won’t be the last. Canned pear, white peach, and nectarine with a smattering of flowers, and is nicely balanced between dry and sweet.
