Medium-bodied wines with more structure and a mouth-feel similar to whole milk
Crafted by the renowned winemaker Susana Balbo, this Torrontes and Sauvignon Blanc blend showcases tropical fruit, citrus, and floral notes with crisp acidity and minerality. With a smooth, complex finish, it beautifully reflects the cool-climate terroir of Mendoza. Perfect for pairing with seafood or white meats.
About The Varietal
Torrontés plays a significant role in the white wine production of Argentina. However, it's essential to note that the name represents several grape varieties rather than a single one. Torrontés wines vary in style, ranging from light and fresh to heady and intensely perfumed. They often express spicy, soapy characters and aromas of white flowers.
Enjoy with curry dishes, roasted white meats or mushrooms!
About The Producer
Once recognized as one of Argentina's top female winemakers, Susana Balbo originally aspired to pursue nuclear physics. However, her parents deemed it an "unconventional choice, " preventing her from leaving Mendoza. Instead, she joined the family’s winemaking business and, in 1981, became the first woman in Argentina to earn a degree in enology. She then dedicated herself to studying the Torrontes grape at Michel Torino Winery and consulting for wineries across South America, Europe, and Australia. 1999 she established Susana Balbo Wines in Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza. Today, her son José, a UC Davis graduate, and daughter Ana, a University of San Andrés graduate, work alongside her. In 2018, she was named one of "The 10 Most Influential Women in the Wine World" by The Drinks Business magazine.
