Varietal

Torrontes

Torrontés is Argentina’s flagship white grape variety, celebrated for its intensely aromatic profile and crisp acidity. Though its exact origins remain debated, it is believed to be a natural cross between Criolla Chica (Mission grape) and Muscat of Alexandria, which explains its signature floral and fruity characteristics. The finest Torrontés wines come from high-altitude vineyards in Salta, particularly Cafayate, where cooler temperatures help retain freshness and enhance aromatics. What makes Torrontés unique is its Muscat-like perfume, with notes of orange blossom, jasmine, rose petals, and honeysuckle, alongside flavors of ripe peach, apricot, citrus, and tropical fruit. Despite its sweet aroma, most Torrontés wines are dry, with bright acidity that balances the fruitiness. This grape thrives in sunny, arid conditions, producing wines that are light-bodied, fresh, and food-friendly. It pairs well with spicy cuisine, seafood, and aromatic dishes, making it an excellent choice for those who enjoy expressive, floral white wines.

Region

Patagonia

Patagonia is not a region which immediately comes to mind when considering ideal locations for viticulture, which is something which makes Patagonia's annual output of fine wines all the more impressive. Situated in the very south of South America, and lying on both the Argentinian and Chilean sides of the Andean mountains, Patagonia has been settled in by many different nationalities over the centuries, making it a fascinating place for wine production and culture. Perhaps due to the eclectic mix of people who made Patagonia their home, the wines of the region are an interesting mix of many European style wines – far more 'old world' in style than other wines found elsewhere in Argentina or Chile. Whilst red wine varietals such as Pinot Noir and Malbec thrive quite happily in the Patagonian soils, it is the region's white wine grapes; Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Gewurztraminer which are most widely admired for the wines they produce.
