Torres Vina Esmeralda 2008

Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainEsmeralda has really elevated its game under screwcap. The Upper Penedès white blend of 85/15 gewürztraminer/moscatel jumps out of your glass with bright fresh aromatic fruit that is alive. Expect a zesty, bright super fruited wine with bits of lychee, green apple, lemon lime and tropical melons. You can serve it solo but it will really brighten up your sushi, Thai, or Indian dishes. It is a personal favourite with curry. Great value in most of Canada and a ridiculous buy in Ontario.Tasted: 08 November 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
