Maipe Torrontes 2014


Name: Maipe
Variety: Torrontes
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2014
Price: $14, on sale for $7.95
Shop/Critic/Winery Review: "The wine has a 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 impressions:  Very fruity nose, laced with sugar.  I know sweet/sugar isn't so much of a smell, but that's all I can think of is sugar.  Not very sweet in the taste though.  It's ok.  For $8 yes, $14 no.
