Crios Malbec

Susana Balbo is a trailblazer in Argentina’s wine industry, known for her expertise and innovative approach to winemaking. She was the first female enologist in Argentina and has played a pivotal role in elevating the country’s reputation for producing world-class wines. The Crios label represents a tribute to her children and symbolizes new beginnings and exploration. Each bottle of Crios Malbec reflects her dedication to quality and her passion for showcasing Argentina’s terroir. This is an outstanding example of Argentina’s signature grape variety. It is celebrated for its bold fruit flavours, balanced acidity, and smooth tannins, this Malbec embodies youthful energy while maintaining complexity and depth.

This Malbec is crafted from hand-harvested grapes sourced from high-altitude vineyards in Argentina’s Mendoza region, where the cool climate and well-drained soils contribute to excellent grape quality. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve fruit purity, followed by brief aging in oak barrels to add subtle complexity without overpowering the wine’s fresh character. The result is a balanced and approachable Malbec that showcases the best of Argentina’s winemaking traditions.

The nose offers inviting aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries, accented by hints of violets and spices. On the palate, this wine delivers a rich and fruit-forward experience, with juicy dark fruit flavors complemented by notes of mocha, vanilla, and a touch of black pepper. The well-integrated tannins provide a smooth texture, leading to a lingering, elegant finish.

This Malbec pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes. Its rich fruit profile and soft tannins make it an excellent match for grilled meats, particularly beef, which is a staple in Argentine cuisine. It also complements roasted vegetables, hearty pasta dishes, and aged cheeses. For a delightful pairing, try it with a classic Argentine asado or a savoury mushroom risotto.
