Variety: 40% Sauvignon Blanc, 40% Chardonnay, 20% Viognier
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina

Winery Review: This unoaked Agrelo blend combines mostly Sauvignon Blanc with lesser amounts of Chardonnay and Viognier. White peach, lemon and grapefruit flavours combine to good effect here with a refreshing, limestone-like tang. - Time Atkins, 91 pts

My Review: Citrus, aromatic, and fruity for a white blend with a high percentage of Sauvignon Blanc. Could also pick up on hints of pineapple, apple, and apricot. Was surprisingly refreshing but had a funky, acidic aftertaste.

With/without food: I tasted this on its own without food.
