Description
In a nutshell:
An outstanding Argentinian white blend from the Mendoza region which has a delicious complexity and delicacy.
The lowdown:
Composed of equal parts of Sauvignon Blanc, Torrontés and Semillon which are barrel fermented separately before blending and further barrel ageing this is a wine with the capability of ageing gracefully. There's an elegant aromatic and floral feel which marries nicely with ripe stone fruit flavours and subtle creamy texture. Susana Balbo has created a terrific wine here that's excellent value for money.
The Producer:
Susana Balbo, whose career started back in 1981, is one Argentina's pioneering female winemakers and is renowned throughout the world as an exceptional talent, not only in pure wine-making terms but as a global ambassador for Argentina. Always at the vanguard of change and innovation, Susana is increasingly known for single vineyard wines that speak volumes about their origin. She has been part of the driving force behind the evolution of Argentinian wine towards an emphasis on freshness, elegance and drinkability as opposed to the heavy 'fruit-bomb' wines of old. As a winemaker Susana demonstrates intimate knowledge of and respect for the land and the grapes in all her wines, and her role as the 'Queen of Torrontés' remains undisputed in our view, never standing still but continuously pushing the vinous envelope with this unique varietal. Susana Balbo Barrel Fermented Torrontés is a case in point.
When to drink:
Matching with food this is a really versatile number that'll work well with the likes of chicken, seafood across to Thai and Japanese cuisine.
