Torrontes, Riesling
75cl * Vegan * 12.5% ABV * Salta, Argentina
Amalaya translates as 'hope for a miracle,' which is an apt name for a winery perched in the highest region in the world. Combining the headiness of Muscat and the spice of Gewürztraminer, Torrontés is to white wines in Argentina what Malbec is to reds. Fruit-driven and floral - all grapefruit and rose - and silky in texture, yet crisp and dry, it is a wine of delicious contrasts.
This pairs excellently with delicate, aromatic, creamy curries such as South Indian, Goan and Keralan dishes with white fish or seafood.
