Anelo 2016 Torrontés Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza Argentina

Fabián Valenzuela is a winemaker with a deep connection to Argentine wine. Growing up on a vineyard working under his father and grandfather fostered a lifelong dedication to making high-quality wine. He spent his youth traveling and studying, and is now bringing amazing native Argentine varietals to a new audience. For the Anelo 2016 Torrontés Fabián partnered with the first permanent winemaker at the world-famous Chateau Petrus (whose wines often sell for over $3,000) to make a versatile and elegant wine that represents the best of the Lujan de Cuyo region. Not only is it smooth, but the wine has a strong floral aroma with hints of citrus and white peach that pair seamlessly with seafood and spice. The Anelo Torrontés is a quintessential example of a talented winemaker showcasing the best his unique heritage has to offer, and it is a delightful introduction to this wine region.
