    My 1st torrontes was the Crios de Susana Balbo 2006. It was not my “cup of tea”. The floral aspect was too overpowering as if I was drinking Febreeze. If I try another torrontes ever again, I’ll try the Monteflores.

  • I LOVE it when you get Mott actively involved in the show! Since you are denying us “Mott Link it Up” T-shirts I think you owe it to us to at least have him participate more in 2008.
