SIGNATURE CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2013 Uco Valley, Mendoza |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
SUSANA BALBO |
Extremely deep intense purple colour. Intense, complex, slightly spicy, warm ripe plum nose with some mocha-chocolate-vanilla notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, quite well structured, bright ripe plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, crisp, sandalwood-tinged, mocha-chocolate finish. The recommended 2012 (**+) was released on May 16, 2015 at $19.95. This organic wine contains less than 31 mg/L of free sulphur. Unfortunately, the exact level is no longer available from the LCBO for those with sulphur sensitivity!

Known as the \"Evita of Wine,\" Susana Balbo worked for 25 years as a consultant winemaker in Argentina and throughout the world before opening Dominio del Plata in 1999. The Signature wines represent her super-premium range. This Cabernet is made in a fleshy, generously oaked style and will pair nicely with meats featuring a marinade or coffee rub. |
