Chakana Singular Torrontes de Maceracion Prolongada
Chakana
Argentina - Mendoza    - Uco Valley   

Chakana is the name of the Southern Cross constellation. Its rotation in the sky throughout the year made it an effective agricultural calendar for the ancient Andean people.

Deep, orange color. Complex nose, notes of white flowers, peaches, evolution and skins aromas. Nice texture, good structure, final minerality, perfectly balanced by good freshness.
