2017 Susana Balbo Signature Brioso

Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, September 2019

“Bright ruby-red. Very pure aromas of blackcurrant, licorice, flowers, herbs and menthol; showing its oak and its Cabernet Sauvignon side today. Intense dark berry, licorice, dark chocolate and dried fig flavors show an element of medicinal minty reserve, with a touch of Cabernet Franc greenness contributing lift. Finishes with smooth, horizontal but firm tannins and terrific grip. Displaying no easy sweetness today, this very promising blend has the structure to evolve gracefully. (aged for 14 months in new barriques)”

2017 Susana Balbo Signature Brioso

James Suckling, James Suckling, March 2019

“Extremely transparent and bright with complex aromas of dark berries, cedar and flowers that follow through to a full yet tight and composed palate with complex flavors and a long and clear finish. Hints of fresh herbs at the end. Blend of cabernet sauvignon, malbec, cabernet franc and a dash of petit verdot. Some whole cluster fermentation. Drink now.”

2017 Nosotros Single Vineyard Nómade Malbec

James Suckling, James Suckling, April 2021

“Black plums, blueberries, dried herbs, cedar, vanilla and crushed stones on the nose. It’s medium-to full-bodied with ultra fine tannins and bright acidity. There’s vivacity and wild energy to this, with layers of bitter chocolate and berries interwoven with stones and minerals. So energetic and very driven with gorgeously integrated tannins. So long, too. Drink or hold.”

2017 Nosotros Single Vineyard Nómade Malbec

Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, March 2021

“The 2017 Nosotros Single Vineyard Nómade Malbec was produced with grapes from a vineyard in Agrelo, a classical zone of Mendoza. It fermented with indigenous yeasts in a 6,500-liter oak vat and matured in French barriques (80% of them new) for 16 months. It's a traditional wine and subtly oaked with sweet spice aromas and fine-grained tannins. Very showy. 10,000 bottles were filled in September 2018.”

James Suckling, James Suckling, April 2020

“Beautiful silkiness and finesse to this wine. It’s so impressive and beautiful. The tannins are so fine, from the chalk soils of the vineyard. Medium to full body. Cool fruit. Extremely long and racy. Drink or hold.”

2015 Nosotros Single Vineyard Nómade Malbec

Kim Marcus, Wine Spectator, December 2021

“Intensely fruity, with vibrant acidity to the concentrated blueberry, red currant and plum flavors that feature plenty of inky accents. Shows toasty notes on the Asian spice–filled finish. Drink now through 2026. 200 cases imported.”

2019 Crios Torrontés

Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, October 2019

“The just-bottled 2019 Críos Torrontés felt a bit reductive and with the influence of the sulfur in the bottling. But underneath, there are notes of white peach and some citrus, and of course, the orange blossom and Moscatel pulp sensations. It has a combination of the Salta wilderness and the cooler side from the Valle de Uco, as it's a blend from both places. 324,000 bottles produced.”

Anthony Dias Blue, Blue Lifestyle, January 2021

“Susana Balbo is a master of this spicy, indigenous variety; silky, fresh and juicy with charming Muscato-like notes and crisp acidity; a perfect lunchtime wine.”
