Time to Taste a Tasty Torrontés from Argentina!

 

This time we taste a 2024 Amalaya Torrontés Riesling Blend from Salta, in the north of Argentina. This white blend is mostly Torrontés which is an aromatic grape, somewhat like Gewürztraminer, with a bit of Riesling to add some nice structure.

Time to Taste a Provence Rosé - from a winery partially owned by Brad Pitt!

 

This time we try a Provence Rosé - beautiful light pink wine from the South of France.
