Torres China recently added Uruguay brand  Pisano to its wine portfolio. At the company’s recent Taste of the Nations event in Beijing, which includes ~150 wines from 13 countries, Torres listed five Pisano wines in its booklet. They included one white, Rio de los Pajaros Reserve Torrontes 2011 (rmb199), and four reds, Rio de los Pajaros Reserve TSV 2009 (a Tannat, Syrah and Viognier blend at rmb199), Rio de los Pajaros Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (rmb199), RPF Petit Verdot 2007 (rmb286) and RPF Tannat 2008 (rmb286). The people I talked to said they enjoyed these wines and I especially liked the two reserve reds, which includes that Tannat et al blend.
