2020 | Susana Balbo | Brioso

Racy and layered with black and red fruit, black chocolate, black olives, blueberries and a mineral accent. A tangy, elegant and juicy palate, rounded by dusty tannins that melt into the fruit.

Producer Information

Dominio del Plata is an Argentinian wine company founded and owned by leading winemaker Susana Balbo, who is known as the Queen of Torrontés, and is credited with first developing this now-familiar aromatic grape. As with many other estates in Argentina, it is also known for its Malbec. The winery is located in Luján de Cuyo, with vineyard plots in various subregions of the Uco Valley. The estate was formed in 1999, by which time Balbo had already amassed more than 20 years' experience as a consultant winemaker. The range of wines is headed by the Nosotros line, which comprises a Malbec, the Francis – 50 percent Malbec, 30 percent Cabernet Sauvignon with Cabernet Franc and Tannat – and the Sofita cuvée (75 percent Malbec with Cabernet Sauvignon and a little Cabernet Franc). The Susana Balbo Signature series represents a personal selection with a stated emphasis on aromatics, complexity and balance. This tier includes the Brioso red and white (the former a Cabernet Sauvignon-based Bordeaux Blend and the latter a combination of Semillón, Torrontés and Sauvignon Blanc) Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec in dry and late-harvest versions, and both a barrel-fermented and late-harvest Torrontés. A more recent edition to the series is the Paraje Altamira Malbec.
