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.

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.
