2020 Susana Balbo 'Crios' Malbec Uco Valley

Winemaker Notes: A fresh, pure expression of the varietal, with aromas of violets, cherries, mocha and spice. Juicy tannins and balanced acidity complement perfectly with ripe fruit flavors, while a subtle hint of oak adds complexity.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "Brightness and energy to this, with sliced cherry, tar, berry and some asphalt. Medium body with light tannins and a fruity finish. Delicious."


Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "The juicy 2020 Crios Malbec was produced with grapes from different locations in the Valle de Uco in Mendoza that, in a warm and dry year, shows ripe aromas and a soft texture with integrated acidity and a tender mouthfeel. Forty percent of the wine matured in barrel for eight months, and that gave it an extra degree of complexity."
