CHILE & ARGENTINA
Chile and Argentina also have good examples of cool-climate wines. Look for Sauvignon Blanc from Casablanca Valley. Check out Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir from Itata and Bio Bio Valleys in Chile. And don’t forget Chardonnay and Torrontes from Uco Valley in Chile. So the next time you have a hankering for a glass of something light, bright and refreshing, take a chance on something from the southern hemisphere — you might just be surprised!
MICHEL TORINO ESTATE CUMA TORRONTES
SALENTEIN RESERVE CHARDONNAY Complex aromas of white flowers, citrus and tropical fruit. On the palate, this Chardonnay is gentle, sweet and unctious with a long and persistent finish. The natural acidity makes the wine fresh, while contact with the lees as well as its oak aging grant it elegance and a well- balanced structure.
Aromas of lime and white grapefruit, honeysuckle and peach stone lead to a concentrated and weighty palate. A zesty and simply delicious bottle to pair with stronger cheeses, smoked sausage, rich seafood or spicy curries.
