The Torrontes grape is a crossing of Muscat of Alexandria and the Mission grape (originally reported as Criolla Chica) that was also extensivly grown in California. The flavors of Torronts are reminiscent of both Gewurtztraminer and Dry Muscat. The wine is dry, crisp, refreshing and aromatic, with a bouquet of citrus fruits, passion fruit, lychee and white flowers. Lively acidity, a hint of creaminess and a long, mineral finish add depth and balance to the palate.
Susana is known as the “Queen of Torrontes” for her role in transforming Torrontés from an unknown blending grape into Argentina’s star white varietal.
