Susana Balbo Signature is the cellar top line of wines and the maximum expression of the winemaker and winery owner, Susana Balbo who blends her knowledge of the terroir with her winemaking talent. At each harvest, she personally chooses each parcel and selects the most complex and aromatic barrels. The resulting wines express exceptional elegance and refinement.
The Malbec Signature is produced with Malbec grapes and a small addition of Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from the Finca La Delfina vineyard, in Paraje Altamira, at 1,150 meters above sea level. The addition of Cabernet Sauvignon to the blend adds structure, resulting in a silky and balanced mouthfeel.
This round and harmonious wine has an intense violet color. On the nose, it reveals the fruity characteristics typical of Malbec with aromas of blackberry, and black cherry followed by notes of spices and mint. The exceptional aromas come back in the mouth harmoniously combining with ripe plum and subtle notes of vanilla, semi-sweet chocolate, and mint in the finish. It is a full-bodied, velvety wine with a pleasant and persistent finish. Try it with meatloaf, lamb chops or spicy sausages like Chorizo.
A Birthday to Remember with DAOU & Colomé Celebrating my mother’s birthday was made even more special thanks to two incredible wines—DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 and Colomé Auténtico Malbec 2020. The star of the evening was undoubtedly the DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon. From the first sip, it enveloped us in its rich, velvety embrace. The deep dark fruit flavors, hints of cocoa, and perfectly balanced oak made every glass feel like a true indulgence. It was bold yet elegant, a wine that effortlessly brought warmth and joy to our gathering. Seeing my mother savor each sip with a smile made it all the more memorable. The Colomé Auténtico Malbec also delivered beautifully, with its pure expression of high-altitude Malbec. It was powerful, with ripe blackberries, spice, and a smooth, lingering finish—an excellent complement to the evening. These wines didn’t just enhance our meal; they became part of the celebration, elevating every toast and conversation. A heartfelt thank you to DAOU and Colomé for making this special occasion truly unforgettable!
