Starting in 1999, Susana Balbo crafted a line of wines to showcase the ripe fruit expression of her sustainably farmed Mendoza vineyards. The philosophy is a simple one: grow great grapes and make wines with minimal intervention that are true to their place. Make no mistake – these are masculine wines that express the power of the vines and the hard work that goes into growing grapes. Combine this with Susana?s winemaking skills and the result is wines that express the powerful fruit flavors, the ripe tannins and the incredible length and balance that can only come from this one place: Mendoza

Tasting Notes
From a selection of 80 years old vineyards from the zone of La Consulta and Vista Flores (Valle de Uco). Harvested in the first week of April, the first quality selection occurs in the vineyard with only the best clusters taken, then a second selection by "triage", in the winery, the grapes are vinified at 30- 32 Celsius in small stainless steel vats. Fermentation-maceration lasts four weeks. The wine then is transferred into small French oak where it undergoes malolactic fermentation, and where it matures up to 18 months before bottling without filtration.
