Argentina: White

Munay Torrontes 2017, Salta

Grown at 1650m above sea level, Munay offer up a sensational illustration of what can be achieved when premium grapes are planted at altitude. The extended growing season enjoyed in the Cafayate Valley, Salta, has allowed for higher levels acidity along with a greater concentration of fruit flavour. And we could not be happier with this offering!

Powerful aromatics burst out of the glass giving floral, citrus, stone and tropical fruit aromas along with a hint of kerosine-captivating! The palate is enveloping with pleasing acidity and flashes of banana and cream on the finish.
