Tasting - Maipe

Name: Maipe Chakana Wines
Variety: Torrontes
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2013
Price: $7.95

Vintage Cellar Review: 
Spring-like nose of fresh white peaches, pears, green apple, green melon and hints of jasmine and rose petals. On the palate, it has a beautiful structure and acidity along with fruit flavors and plenty of body. Well balanced, this wine displays a pleasant freshness with citrus notes and a long finish. 

My Review: 
I really enjoyed this wine. It was deeper and warmer than the Hugl that we had tasted previously. I could both and taste a vanilla, earth flavor which I now realize may have been the floral notes they were describing above. 

I did not have any food while tasting this wine.
