From high-altitude vineyards in the northern Salta region comes this well-made, zippy white blend. On the nose, tarragon combines with citrus, peach and nectarine, while in the mouth, things are solid and even a touch creamy. Finishing flavors of banana, melon and lychee are typical of Torrontés. 1 Note

Yellowing in color and smelling waxy and peachy. This has become fleshy and sweet, with a syrupy feel. Drink it now or wait for a fresher vintage. 1 Note

Overt and akin in some ways to Gewurztraminer. Flowery, lemony and fairly ebullient. Driving acidity keeps it fresh, and it tails away with a dry, soda-like snap. But drink soon; it’s not getting younger. 1 Note

Soft, lightly fragrant and peachy, with a hint of talcum powder to the nose. The palate offers your basic mix of melon and lychee, while the feel is good and there’s a persistent finish. Straightforward stuff. 1 Note

Litchi and nectarine are prominent in this vivacious white, rarely found outside of Argentina. This version is fun and lively, with plenty of zip. Finishes in crisp, defined, lengthy layers. Definitely worth a try. 1 Note

What a score! Torrontès, a little-known Spanish white winegrape, turns out to be a superstar in Mendoza. Packed tight with bright, vivid, penetrating fruit, this strikingly flavorful wine begins with lovely scents of citrus, orange peel and tangerine and takes off from there. It moves into still more complexity, with traces of diesel, talc and flower petal. Think Viognier, Gewürztraminer and Riesling, blended and punched up with a full-bodied, lingering finish. 1 Note

Pungent, with aromas of green herbs, litchi fruit and green melon. Starts better than it finishes, and along the way you’ll find moderate peach and melon flavors riding on a competent palate. 1 Note
