Susana Balbo Crios Torrontés 2025
Vintage Character
Susana Balbo Crios Torrontés 2025 is a dry white wine from Mendoza’s Valle de Uco, a high-altitude origin that has become one of Argentina’s most reliable sources for vibrant, aromatic whites. The 2025 vintage is best understood as a style-led release rather than a cellar wine: cool Andean nights help preserve acidity and lift, while the region’s intense sunlight supports full flavor development, giving this Torrontés its hallmark perfume with crisp definition. Valle de Uco’s elevated vineyards, alluvial soils, and marked diurnal range are central to the wine’s freshness and precision, tempering Torrontés’ exuberant aromatics with a cleaner, more focused profile.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
The nose is immediately expressive, opening with jasmine, orange blossom, white peach, lychee, and grapefruit zest, followed by a subtle touch of spice. On the palate, it is light- to medium-bodied, dry, and energetic, with ripe citrus and stone-fruit flavors framed by bright acidity and a gently rounded texture before a fragrant, mouthwatering finish. This is a highly versatile white for the table: try it with ceviche, grilled prawns with lemon and herbs, or Thai green curry, where its floral lift and citrusy snap play especially well.
Winery Background
Susana Balbo Wines was founded by Susana Balbo, widely recognized as Argentina’s first female enologist and a key figure in raising the international profile of Torrontés and fine Mendoza wine. The Crios range, named in tribute to her children and to new generations, is designed to showcase pure fruit, varietal clarity, and approachability without sacrificing precision. Fruit for this wine is sourced from carefully selected high-altitude sites, and the winemaking emphasizes aromatic retention through cool fermentation in stainless steel, with no need for heavy oak influence. That combination of technical rigor, regional identity, and dependable quality has made Susana Balbo a benchmark producer for modern Argentine whites.
