Susana Balbo Malbec -2008 (WE-125838)

Avg. Rating: 1 Notes / 0 Ratings
Type:Red Wine
Varietal: Malbec
Country: USA
Region: Not Available
Appellation: Mendoza
Winery:Susana Balbo

Most Recent Tasting Note:

As the higher-end 2008s hit the market, the vintage’s underwhelming character is confirmed via wines like this. Oaky and rubbery on the nose, with scattered, lean berry fruit flavors and bitterness. Like many ’08s, it’s short on richness and comes across unfocused. That said, it’s still a good wine that’s not badly made. 1 Note

Susana Balbo Malbec -2001 (WE-30958)

Avg. Rating: 1 Notes / 0 Ratings
Type:Red Wine
Varietal: Malbec
Country: USA
Region: Not Available
Appellation: Mendoza
Winery:Susana Balbo

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Over two decades of working in Argentina, Susana Balbo has picked up a thing or two about winemaking. Her eponymous Malbec features masculine high-voltage fruit coddled in French oak. The result is a snappy, deep wine with lemony edges and a strong foundation. With 10% each of Cabernet and Bonarda. 1 Note

Susana Balbo Cabernet Sauvignon -2005 (WE-87531)

Avg. Rating: 1 Notes / 0 Ratings
Type:Red Wine
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Country: USA
Region: Not Available
Appellation: Mendoza
Winery:Susana Balbo

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Expensive for what you’re getting. The wine starts with a reddish-green set of aromas, which are backed by generic red-fruit flavors that are medium to narrow in scope and just don’t taste much like Cabernet. Time allows it to show a bit more, but always it seems basic and shy. 1 Note

Susana Balbo Malbec -2006 (WE-87530)

Avg. Rating: 1 Notes / 0 Ratings
Type:Red Wine
Varietal: Malbec
Country: USA
Region: Not Available
Appellation: Mendoza
Winery:Susana Balbo

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Barrel city, with piercing, dark aromas on a fleshy, flabby frame. Normally we are big fans of Susana Balbo’s wines, but this Malbec is sweet, syrupy and sticky, with prune and jam-like flavors and hardly any spine. Can you say overripe and overoaked? 1 Note

Susana Balbo Cabernet Sauvignon -2003 (WE-60591)

Avg. Rating: 1 Notes / 0 Ratings
Type:Red Wine
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Country: USA
Region: Not Available
Appellation: Mendoza
Winery:Susana Balbo

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Rich, warm and possessing a ton of dry oak, this is one serious Argentine Cabernet. The palate is grippy as a rubber glove, with snappy berry flavors and pointed acidity. It’s ripe, racy and edgy, with substance to the fruit, feel and finish. Drink now through 2010. 1 Note
