Valles Torrontes 2020

Salta
  • 75cl bottle

This Torrontés, cultivated in the Salta valleys of Argentina, is a fragrant, crisp and zingy white wine with flavours of lychée, orange peel and gentle spices.

Vineyards

The Andes Valleys are the home to wines of elegance and character. Our Valles wines are made with grapes grown in high altitude vineyards along the foothills of the Andes Mountains range.

Vintage

The 2020 vintage will undoubtedly be remembered as one of the most particular in Mendoza. Once again the old adage that leads us to say “no two vintages are the same” has taken on special significance: it is difficult to imagine two vintages as different from each other as 2019 and 2020, fundamentally for their climate development. The current one has been a great quality vintage, characterized by its limited yields, between 10% and 20% lower than the historical values according to the areas; and due to the high speed of maturity, which made it one of the fastest and most challenging we can remember.

Winemaking

Manual selection of bunches, before being destalked and crushed. They were fermented at 15-18C° (59° - 64° F) with selected yeast. After fermentation the wine was stored on fine lees for 6 months.
