Wine Tasting Note: Otra Vida Viognier, 2004, Mendoza, Argentina.Falling off the shelf at Oddbins £4.99.
Chilean producer Concha y Toro has expanded into Argentina utilising winemaker Federico Galdeano's skills in producing a great range of wines from the Trivento estate. For a fiver this is exceptional. A mouth-filling array of peachy, crisp apple fruit coupled with a spicy complexity. A nice orange edge runs into the finish. The Oddbins website recommends this with crab cakes served with a mango salsa; but I supped this an an aperitif. Alcohol 13%.
Scribblings Rating - 88/100
Not sure about the front labels declaration - "Passionate people who live life to the full and at full volume. We created this range of wines to give you a taste of another life. We hope you enjoy La Otra Vida." Taste of another life... I am quite happy with my own life, thank you very much, and I really don't want to be shown people at 'full volume'.
