2022 Torrontés, Bodegas Sottano, Mendoza, Argentina

A wonderfully vibrant and zesty torrontés from the super Bodegas Sottano. There's a great flourish of waxy citrus peel on the nose and on the palate this translates into lively grapefruit. It's got a lovely acidity and freshness on the finish. Enjoy well chilled in the sun or with light and aromatic asian dishes (escpecially with a lemongrass base).

The Sottano Winery is located in one of the most unique wine regions for growing high-end grapes in Mendoza. Thirty kilometres away from the City of Mendoza and on the way to Chile, Sottano Winery enjoys the magnificent Andes Mountain Range as its backdrop.

This family estate in the Pedriel district of Mendoza is run and owned by the Sottano brothers Diego, Pablo and Mauricio. It sits at 1000m altitude in the foothills of the Andes so benefiting from the warm days and cold nights typical of the region which make for well balanced and perfectly ripe grapes. The wines from this estate are rich and smooth yet maintain an elegance and balance uncommon in new world wines.
