    Alamos continues to give the bang for the buck. Love the Argentine wines, and while I have previously had the Torrontes, (Balbo “Crios”), have not had the Alamos. [Until tonight that is]. QOTD………………Arlington, VA.

  • I’m going to go track down some Torrentes to ‘give a whirl’ now. My wife is a big PG fan, so hopefully this will help our wallets too! LOL.

    Another mold-breaking episode. I should make a clip of your “Listen to Yourself” rant & email it to everyone who asks me for tips on how to approach wine tasting. Come to think of it, YOU should make that clip & have Mott link-it-up. JUST AWESOME!

    I am excited as all get out. That Alamo Torrentes can actually be bought locally here since we get a lot of wines from Argentina; albeit, the price rolls in around 15 bones, annoyingly.

    Gary, condolences for your losses.
