Product Notes

Susana Balbo Signature Late Harvest Torrontés is a delightfully decadent Argentinian wine. Renowned for its vibrant balance of sweetness and freshness, it exhibits an exotic bouquet of crystallised fruits, citrus marmalade, jasmines and distinctive hints of spices. Crafted from the unique Torrontés grape variety, it boasts a stunning luminous gold hue. This opulent late-harvest wine caresses the palate with an elegant sweetness, balanced impeccably by lively acidity. The finish is long and gratifying. Perfectly enjoyed as a pudding wine or paired with strong cheeses. A true testament to Susana Balbo's winemaking prowess.

Tasting Notes

A wine with yellow colour and golden hues. The nose displays delicate, floral aromas combined with exotic fruits. The mouth reveals flavours of fresh fruit that combine with honey and vanilla notes that are due to the oak. Its finish is balanced, elegant and persistent.

About the Winery

Susana Balbo

Situated in the heart of Argentina's famed wine region, Mendoza, Susana Balbo Winery beautifully showcases the very best of Argentinian winemaking. This distinctive winery is not just a beacon of world-class winemaking but it also stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of its founder, the renown Susana Balbo.

Susana was the first female winemaker in Argentina, breaking into a traditionally male-dominated industry back in the 1980s. Today, her eponymous winery continues her legacy of innovation and excellence. From her eponymous line of signature wines to cutting-edge craftmanship, Susana Balbo Winery offers an exemplary experience for every wine lover.

The vineyard spreads over 20 hectares of bountiful Mendoza soil. Here, the combination of warm days, chilly nights and nutrient-rich soil yields crisp, flavourful grapes. Susana Balbo Winery specialises in Malbec wines, a heady, full-bodied varietal that has become synonymous with Argentinian wine. Each bottle produced at the winery is rich, millions complex and brimming with a unique blend of fruit-forward flavours, backed by balanced acidity and elegant tannins.

In addition to the top-tier wines, visitors to the winery can also indulge in gastronomical delights at the onsite restaurant, where local ingredients are paired with the winery's vintages to create unmatched culinary experiences. Patrons can enjoy these handcrafted meals on the centred terrace, overlooking the serene beauty of the Mendoza vineyards.

The Susana Balbo Winery is not just a destination for wine lovers; it's a pilgrimage for those who cherish the essence of Argentinian winemaking. As you walk through the vine-laden lanes, you don't just experience a winery, you experience the vibrant tapestry of Argentinian culture, one that’s steeped in tradition, bold innovation and the passionate pursuit of perfection.

For any wine saviour, a visit to the Susana Balbo Winery isn’t just enjoyable – it’s downright essential.
