Elegant, taut, outstanding.
The family vineyards of El Porvenir are located around 5,700 feet above sea level in Tolombon very near Cafayate. The winery was established four decades ago by winery director Lucia Romero-Marcuzzi's grandfather Roberto Romero. Planted with Tannat and Torrontes (vines now 55 years old) the estate was expanded two decades ago with the addition Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah among others.
This outstanding Torrontes was born from the old vine El Retiro Vineyard, which rests at 5,577 feet, and is perfumed with notes of lime and grapefruit, gooseberry and wild flowers, white pepper, peach nectar and honey. The palate is as precise and pristine as the nose; juicy with notable concentration it is taut and seamless, elegant and persistent.
Pairs Great with Gone Crackers Roasted Shallot & Herb
