Wine Description

The Tilia wines are made by Leopoldo Kuschnaroff, winemaker and viticulturist in Eastern Mendoza. 

Torrontés is indigenous to Argentina and has a unique profile that has quickly made it the country's signature white grape. The high altitude vineyard where the Tilia Torrontés grapes are sourced sits at an incredibly high 5,500 feet above sea level.
