WTF Torrontes 2017 is 100% Torrontes sourced from GI Los Chacayes in the Tunuyán department of the Uco Valley, Mendoza. The vines grow on alluvial soils with chalky topsoil and loamy clay subsoil at 1,250 meters above sea level, where a semi-desert climate delivers roughly 330 days of sun per year alongside significant diurnal temperature swings that preserve natural acidity.
Grapes are hand-harvested into small bins and pressed to separate juice from skins before the must goes into fourth-use oak barrels for spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The oak at this age contributes negligible flavor, functioning mainly as a porous vessel. The wine is bottled unfined, unfiltered, and with no added sulfites.
Casa de Uco is the vineyard partner, farming under certified organic practices — no chemical pesticides, compost-only fertilization, double Guyot pruning, and rigorous parcel-by-parcel selection based on soil type. WTF (Wednesday Thursday Friday) is a New York City-based group of natural wine enthusiasts who collaborated with Casa de Uco to produce this wine.
Torrontes is a crossing of Muscat of Alexandria and Criolla Chica, native to Argentina, and delivers intensely aromatic whites with floral, citrus, and stone fruit character. At high altitude, the variety retains the acidity needed to keep that aromatics in balance rather than tipping into heaviness.
