WTN: Inexpensive but pleasant lunch wine from Argentina

Terra Buena Torrontes, Argentina

A glass of this at Hilltop House, Fayetteville. Restaurant winelist lacked vintage information.

Pale gold color with transparency. Extremely aromatic with floral and candied fruit elements. One blogger says aromas and flavors of lychee, starfruit and ripe melon on a surprisingly dry frame. My comment was fruity entry, dry finish. Bingo! I had this with chicken salad on croissant with fruit accompaniment (grapes, pineapple chunks, canteloupe and honeydew melon.) It was a good pairing.
