Deseado Espumante Dulce (Sparkling Sweet) Torrontes Non Vintage, Familia Schroeder, Patagonia, Argentina
Grape: 100% Torrontes, 62g/L residual sugar, manual harvest, Charmat tank production method, 3 months lees' ageing, unoaked
Producer Tasting Note:
A medium bodied, soft and frothy sparkling wine. The Torrontés presents a youthful and appealing lemon colour with green tinges. Fresh and fruity on the nose, the aroma is delicate with amazing flowery notes of honeysuckle, rose petal and orange blossom, along with ripe peach and apricot fruit. The natural sweetness is complemented by zesty and refreshing acidity.
Critics' Tasting Notes:
"Not a million miles away from that other great medium-sweet, gently sparkling wine style, Moscato d'Asti, here Torrontes presents a fragrant bouquet of wild flowers, nettle, orange and peach, before a palate that has plenty of sweetness and a light, gossamer mousse, before bright mandarin orange acidity balances the finish. Very unusual, great for Christmas morning with a mince pie, or with Thai cuisine."
88/100 points, Tom Cannavan
"A medium-sweet sparkling with fragrant aromas of acacia blossom, lime curd and lychee. Floral, fruity and honeyed. Fun. Like a Moscato d’Asti. Drink now." James Suckling, March 2021
Food Match: Pair with sweet or spicy Asian cuisines, sweet desserts and cakes. Try with Creme Brulee.
