Enquire about availabilityTasting the 2022 Crios Malbec next to the new organic one, it was easy to see how this wine from the Valle de Uco (from Los Chacayes, Vista Flores, Los Árboles and Gualtallary Sur) is subtler and has a different point of balance despite having very similar parameters. Here, 40% of the volume spends eight months in used French oak barrels, but there is no aromatic influence of the élevage. It's fresh, balanced and juicy but with a little more austerity and fine-grained tannins. Clean, approachable and tasty. 720,000 bottles produced represents a huge chunk of the total production of the winery.
Susana Balbo Crios Malbec is a delightful Argentine red wine known for its bold and rich taste profile. On the palate, expect to experience a burst of dark fruit flavors such as blackberry and plum, complemented by hints of spice and a touch of vanilla. The aroma is inviting, with notes of ripe berries and a subtle earthiness. What sets this Malbec apart is its smooth tannins and well-balanced acidity, making it a versatile and crowd-pleasing choice.
This wine is perfect for a variety of occasions, from casual gatherings to special celebrations. Enjoy a glass of Susana Balbo Crios Malbec with grilled meats, hearty stews, or even on its own as a relaxing evening sip. Its medium to full body and smooth finish make it a great companion for cozy nights in or lively dinner parties. Elevate your dining experience with this exceptional Malbec that showcases the best of Argentine winemaking.
