TASTING NOTE: The wild 2018 Susana Balbo Signature Torrontés Barrel Fermented might have some herbal aromas that can remind you of Sauvignon Blanc, but there is no trace of it; it's pure Torrontés from a cooler part and harvested early to keep the freshness. This is one of the most characterful Torrontés from Argentina. It has a vibrant palate with expressive herbal notes and citrus hints. It has electricity, chalkiness and a long, tasty finish. It has moderate alcohol and great acidity. A truly impressive Torrontés. Drink date: 2019-2024. Score - 94 (Luis Gutiérrez, robertparker.com, Oct. 31, 2019) Price $ 21.95
Bottle Size 750 mL
Tasting Date vintages release - June 13, 2020
