Torrontes Wines
Torrontes is a white wine grape variety from Argentina. The white wines it produces are from light, crisp and fresh to highly aromatic with peppery notes and floral characteristics. Torrontes grows in Argentina’s famous high-altitude vineyards in the Cafayate region of Salta. Besides Argentina, this grape variety is also grown in Chile, Uruguay and Galicia in Spain but it’s still uncertain if the Spanish Torrontes has any relation to the one from South America.
