Details and technical informations about Winery Petra AR's Torrontes Tardio.
Discover the grape variety: Caberlot
Structured, elegant, age-worthy reds with a deep purple colour, firm tannins and an ample palate showing complex aromas of black fruits (cassis, blackberry), spices, balsamic notes and toasty nuances from ageing. A coveted, confidential cult wine. Grown almost exclusively by the Rogosky family in Tuscany (Podere Il Carnasciale) for a mythical single-estate cuvée. A rare Italian variety, a spontaneous cross of Cabernet Franc × Merlot discovered in Tuscany in the 1960s.

The wine region of Cafayate Valley
Argentine jewel of the Calchaquí Valleys (Salta) at 1,750 m altitude: signature Torrontés as white king — straw robe with golden glints, aromatic with bright notes of rose, jasmine, geranium, citrus, exotic fruits and a spice touch, a surprising palate of vivacity and minerality. Powerful, concentrated Malbec as red king (black cherry, plum, chocolate, spices, firm tannins). Cabernet and Tannat as backup. Extreme altitude, sandy-gravelly draining soils, strong sunshine.
The wine region of Salta
Argentine northwest province, vineyards among the world's highest (1,500-2,800 m) in the Calchaquí Valleys. Torrontés Riojano signature as king white: aromatic and expressive with signature notes of rose, jasmine, white peach, citrus, orange blossom and a musky touch, dry yet round palate — considered the country's finest. Tense altitude Malbec (blackberry, violet, ink), firm Cabernet, dense Tannat. Dry climate, strong thermal swings.
The word of the wine: Burgundy melon
A white grape variety from Burgundy that is not widely used in its native region, but has spread to the Nantes region. It is the exclusive variety of Muscadet. It gives a dry pale yellow wine, supple and lively, with an intense bouquet, to which maturing on lees gives fatness and aromatic complexity.
