The first sip of Terrazas Torrontes Reserva 750ml is like stepping into a sunlit orchard, where fragrant white peaches and orange blossoms fill the air with their inviting sweetness.

Producer Information: Terrazas de los Andes
Terrazas de los Andes was established in the heart of Mendoza, Argentina, where the foothills of the Andes provide an ideal microclimate for high-altitude viticulture. Founded in 1996 by Moët Hennessy, the winery draws on a legacy of French expertise blended with Argentine terroir, focusing on single-varietal expressions that highlight distinct vineyard elevations. Their philosophy centers on harnessing altitude to craft wines with vibrant acidity and expressive fruit character, particularly Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from carefully selected parcels in Luján de Cuyo and Uco Valley. Beyond their flagship reds, Terrazas de los Andes also produces elegant Chardonnay and Torrontés that reflect Mendoza’s diverse soils and sun-drenched days, further cementing their reputation as a leader in South American wine production rooted deeply in place.

This is the most solid malbec I have seen in this bottling with dark-berry and spice aromas and flavors. Medium-to full-bodied, firm and very silky and well defined, thanks to the super fine tannins. Drink or hold.
Cava: Origins, Flavor & Pairing Guide
View All Cava Products →Cava is a sparkling wine from Spain that has been granted Denominación de Origen (DO) designation. It can be either white (blanco) or red (rosé) (rosado). The Macabeo, Parellada, and Xarello grape varietals are the most popular and traditional grape varietals for making cava in Spain. Only wines made using the conventional method are permitted to be labeled as “”cava,”” whereas those created using other methods are only permitted to be labeled as “”sparkling wines”” (vinos espumosos). It is estimated that over 95 percent of all cava is made in the Penedès region of Catalonia, Spain, with the hamlet of Sant Sadurni d’Anoia being home to several of Catalonia’s greatest production houses.:144–145 Codornu and Freixenet are the two largest producers in the country. There are many additional localities that manufacture cava in Aragon, Castile and León, Extremadura, La Rioja, the Basque Country, Navarre, and Valencia.
Since Champagne has been granted Protected Geographical Status (PGS) and Spain joined the EU in 1986, it is no longer legal to market Cava as “Spanish champagne”. This is in accordance with European Union regulations. It is still referred to as champán or champaa in Spanish, or xampany in Catalan, when spoken informally. The term “”quality sparkling wine produced in a specified area”” (Vino Espumoso de Calidad Producido en una Región Determinada, VECPRD) is now defined by law as “”quality sparkling wine produced in a specified area.””
The word champán in Spanish should not be confused with achampado, which is a slang name for sparkling wines made using a manner other than the conventional manner. They are often less expensive and are offered by the bottle in achampado bars and restaurants, which are named by the wines they offer. Although this is not cava, it is a quite popular beverage in its own right.
It was in 1851 that the first bottle of Catalan sparkling wine was produced, and the foundations of the cava business may be traced back to Josep Raventós’s travels across Europe in the 181860s, during which he was marketing the still wines of the Codornu Winery. His excursions to Champagne piqued his curiosity, and he became intrigued by the possibilities of a Spanish wine produced in the same traditional manner. In 1872, when the vineyards of Penedès had been ravaged by the phylloxera disease and the predominately red plants had been replaced by significant numbers of plants yielding white grapes, he made his first sparkler.
During the production of cava, Catalan cava producers were at the forefront of a significant technological development in sparkling wine production with the invention of the gyropallet, a large mechanized device that replaced hand riddling, the process by which the lees are condensed in the neck of the bottle prior to disgorgement and corking.
