2022 Sayanca Torrontes

Hello, unhealthy coping mechanism! Not wine-drinking. Just going through a backlog of old unreviewed-wine notes. Still not ideal, but could surely be worse.

The same might be said for this wine (at least according to April 2024 me). It was sweet, had a screw top, peachy notes, and was acidic but not horribly so. It may have also permanently damaged my brain, but that's probably not how things work. Still not very confident on this point.

Do I recommend it? I do not. Good riddance, wine!

Cost: 5/10

2022 Sayanca Cabernet

This is a fine wine, and I don't mean it's fancy! Pretty classic cab, with more tobacco notes than cherry, that's for sure. Acidic, too, but warming and comforting nonetheless. Pretty consistent across the day 1-3 spectrum. 

 

 

I also enjoyed the steak salad pairing, which was more of an oil/vinegar/tomato salad in my iteration, but still good. The things my grocery store didn't have (ripe avos, tarragon, champagne vinegar, decent steak) didn't prevent it from being a posh and refreshing 4 meals for your girl!

Cost: 5/10 [18$]
