Filus’ 2008 Torrontes is light straw-colored with a fragrant nose of spring flowers and tropical fruits that jumps from the glass. This leads to a medium-bodied wine with lively acidity, good persistence on the palate, solid length, and a refreshing finish. Drink it over the next 1-2 years. The Filus (meaning “friendship”) brand was started in 2005 and currently produces 200,000 cases of which 60% go to the USA. Alberto Antonini has been the winemaking consultant since the inception of the project.Importer: Classic Wine of California, Ceres, CA; tel. (209) 538-3131
