Now at the end of its peak, this is showing mature lychee, melon and soft-fruit aromas along with citrus, mango and nectarine flavors. It’s tasty and pure, with only a slight bit of oily harshness that most Torrontes show. Drink immediately or wait for the 2010. ——M.S.(12/31/2010)—— 88

Round, melony and pleasant, with tropical/floral aromas. Flavorwise, it’s all about medium-intensity melon and lychee, and as Torrontes goes this one is likable and well made. It covers the tropical fruit bases and adds in some peppery dryness on the finish. ——M.S.(12/1/2009)—— 87
