A delicious easy drinking white with a label inspired by the strong graphic patterns of Argentine gaucho costumes.
Made from Palomino, Pedro Ximenez and Torrontes grapes growing in vineyards high in the Andes. The grapes are harvested in the cool of the night to preserve their freshness. They are fermented together to produce a crisp and aromatic white wine.
The vineyards enjoy cool night time temperatures and snow melt from the mountains. This gives floral aromas and zesty flavours of citrus, peach, and apricot.
Try this with marinated grilled chicken and vegetables, or a pasta dish with a creamy sauce.
In 1556 fr Juan Cedrón established the first Argentinian vineyards in Mendoza using cuttings from the Chilean Central Valley. Argentina is now the worlds fifth largest wine producer. The many different grapes reflect the country's immigrant groups: the French brought Malbec, the Italians brought Bonarda and Torrontés is typically Argentinian found in the provinces of La Rioja, San Juan, and Salta.
