A bright, tangy white with sliced apples and lemon skin. Hints of stone and concrete. Medium-bodied, fresh and clean. Lots of citrus. Drink and enjoy. (4/2020)
The just-bottled 2019 Críos Torrontés felt a bit reductive and with the influence of the sulfur in the bottling. But underneath, there are notes of white peach and some citrus, and of course, the orange blossom and Moscatel pulp sensations. It has a combination of the Salta wilderness and the cooler side from the Valle de Uco, as it's a blend from both places. 324,000 bottles produced. (LG) 90+ (10/2019)
Crios means offspring (as in children). Susana selected a word to express the notion that these are wines that haven't quite "grown up" to the same level of maturity as her more expensive Susana Balbo signature label wines, but they receive the same loving care and attention throughout the winemaking process. This is sourced from vineyards in the Uco Valley and Salta, hence the "Argentina" appellation. This is mountain Torrontés, all the vineyards are located at 1700m. The aromatic and refreshing.
