Abras Torrontes 2021 750ml

This Torrontés aims to represent the essence of high-altitude wines from the Cachalquí Valleys, highlighting freshness, aroma, and elegance. Aromas are intense, with citrus and flowery notes combining wonderfully. In the mouth, it seems light, fresh, and balanced.

Karim is always looking for distinct terroir expressions. Abras is the first chapter of a long story that began when he fell in love with Cafayate, a high elevated desert in Salta at 1,700 m.a.s.l. (5,577 f.a.s.l.), the birthplace of Torrontés and magnificent Malbec. The winery source fruit from vines that are over 50 years old and grown on alluvial soils near the valley's bottom, resulting in more mineral and real expressions. The elvish portal provides entrance to the Calchaquí Valley's wine world, similar to how the Incas utilized the Abras to explore the Andes mountains.
