Michel Torino Cuma Organic Torrontés 2008
Cafayate, Calchaqui Valley, Salta, North, ArgentinaCuma means "clean and pure" in the language of the Aymara the pre-Incan inhabitants of Cafayate and other highly elevated plains in Argentina. Both viticulture and winemaking at CUMA meet certified organic guidelines. It's hard not to be impressed with the over powering florals that mark the nose of this exotic varietal. Roses, jasmine, nectarine skins all assault the senses as does the orange, green peach and oily fruit. Young bright aromatic and fresh bring on the spicy dishes and or the roasted birds. Good value.Tasted: 21 December 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $12.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Libations |
