Coming in, I 100% expected to fall in love with this wine due to the tasting notes. This Torrontes wine from Mendoz, Argentina is a 2011 wine sold for $5.95. With the tasting notes pointing to a white wine, full of white peach, rose petal, and jasmine, I fully expected a new love. Unfortunately, I think I found the opposite. At first sniff, I blurted out "this smells like feet." Maybe I couldn't get over that thought, but I tried to get past it. I thought the wine was oakey, with a very, very bitter taste, almost like it was missing some sweetness from the sugar. Perhaps trying it with a sweet or hearty food would make it better, but I did not try this wine with food.
