The white one is Torrontes (a white one only produced in this one region of the world) and the red is Cab Sauv. They were more like flavored ice in texture, but amazingly tasty...very much tasting like the ones and shockingly alchoholic!

How to enjoy Torrontes: in the sun!

Torrontes Ice Cream

Amelie is attentive because she hasn't had as much Torrontes

One thing I wanted from this vacation was one "boozy lunch" where we relaxed, drank wine, ate food, and really just relaxed. This was that lunch. We had two (!!!! Yikes!) bottles of Torrontes and a delicious antipasta plate.
