A fresh, fragrant Torrontés from the high vineyards of Cafayate

Meet Laborum Torrontés Single Vineyard, a beautifully aromatic Argentine white wine from Finca El Retiro in the Cafayate Valley, Salta. Made from 100% Torrontés grapes grown at 1,650 metres above sea level, it is a bright, refreshing wine with vibrant citrus character and a delicate floral lift.
The grapes come from 73-year-old vines and are hand-harvested in three separate picks, allowing the winemaking team to build extra layers of character and complexity. Whole bunches are gently pressed, then fermented slowly at cool temperatures before the wine rests on its lees for three months, giving it added texture while preserving its lively, fresh style.
This is a lovely bottle to keep chilled for sunny lunches, aperitifs or lighter meals. Expect fresh lime and citrus notes, with a subtle rose-like floral aroma and crisp, balanced acidity. Serve it with seafood, grilled fish, chicken, salads, ceviche, lightly spiced dishes or empanadas.

The story behind the wine

Laborum is made by Bodega El Porvenir de Cafayate in Salta, north-west Argentina. Its Torrontés comes from Finca El Retiro, an estate vineyard in the Cafayate Valley, where the high altitude helps the grapes retain freshness and aromatic character. The fruit is picked by hand in 20kg bins across three harvest dates: the first week of February, then the first and final weeks of March.
This approach brings together different expressions of the vineyard. The grapes are selected and whole-bunch pressed, then fermented with selected yeasts for 30 days at a cool 11 to 13°C. The wine spends three months on its lees before final blending, with no malolactic fermentation, helping it stay crisp and vibrant.
