Torrontes, Crios De Susana Balbo
Torrontes, Crios De Susana Balbo - 2007 - Dominio del Plata
Ref: A122907
Zingy and zesty with bags of fresh fruit and great balance.

Crios means “offspring” (as in children). Susana selected a word to express the notion that these are wines that haven’t quite “grown up” to the same level of quality and maturity as her more expensive Susana Balbo signature label wines, but they receive the same loving care and attention throughout the winemaking process. The label features a series of three connected and overlapping hands, an image inspired by a Mayan artifact. The three hands represent Susana and her two children. By definition, Crios wines are meant to be consumed while still young and vibrant and have great fruit expression.

Susana Balbo and her viticulturist partner, Pedro Marchevsky, have combined their respective skills and experience at Dominio del Plata where they are totally in charge, concentrating on planting, varietal selection, water management and canopy ‘conduction’. The project was specially designed so that the vineyards do not harm the natural resources and, at the same time, preserves the environment.

We have been keen supporters of Susana’s excellent Anubis Malbec for many years and we have just added a tremendous lime-fresh Torrontes, sourced from their vineyards in the Cafayete Valley. Quite simply, it’s one of the best white we’ve tasted from Argentina.
