One of Argentina's most popular white grapes, the Torrontés grape was originally from Spain. Generally speaking Torrontés are similar to a Muscat or Gewürtztraminer. </p> <p>From the Salta region of Argentina, the Bodega Colomé estate is one of the world's highest (over 7,500 feet) vineyards. Their Torrontés is an exceptional white with fruity aromas and a zingy finish. Crisp and clean, this delightful, light white is perfect chilled. It's highly drinkable and would be an excellent start to dinner. Pair with cured meats, cheese, and seafood. </p> <p>Have you tried a Torrontés or any other wine from Argentina? </p> http://www.yumsugar.com/Happy-Hour-2008-Colom-Torronts-2469431#comment white wine happy hour wine Argentine 2008 Colomé Torrontés Torrontes Wed, 05 Nov 2008 16:15:36 -0800 partysugar http://www.yumsugar.com/Happy-Hour-2008-Colom-Torronts-2469431
