El Esteco 1945 Old Vines Torrontés 2022

Tasting Notes

A consistently outstanding torrontes without any oak. Very varietal-driven but not overly so. Perfumed lychee, orange blossom, lime, melon, a hint of lemongrass and stones. Very bright on the palate with a phenolic touch that offsets the generous, aromatic fruit and flowers. The result is a nicely structured and vibrant torrontes that is more discreet and gastronomic than most. Fermented in concrete eggs. Drink now. (jamessuckling.com,March 27, 2023)
