Score 89/100 · Drink 2020-2021, Joaquin Hidalgo, Vinous, Jun 2020

A blend of Torrontés from the Uco Valley and Cafayate. A metallic green in color, the 2019 Torrontés Crios has a nose of fresh orange blossom and citrus with lime and grass. Moderately fatty and flavorful in the mouth, it delivers well-judged acidity. This is a sensibly-priced wine with personality and a refreshing feel.

The just-bottled 2019 Críos Torrontés felt a bit reductive and with the influence of the sulfur in the bottling. But underneath, there are notes of white peach and some citrus, and of course, the orange blossom and Moscatel pulp sensations. It has a combination of the Salta wilderness and the cooler side from the Valle de Uco, as it's a blend from both places. 324,000 bottles produced.
