Description

Discover the vibrant expression of Argentina's iconic grape with the Crios Rosé of Malbec by Susana Balbo. Crafted by one of Argentina's most pioneering winemakers, this wine is a masterclass in elegance and freshness. Grown at a soaring altitude of 1,050 meters in the renowned Uco Valley of Mendoza, the grapes benefit from cool mountain nights and intense sunlight, resulting in a wine that is taut, mineral-driven, and perfectly balanced. Unlike many heavier rosés, this Malbec Rosé is deliberately elaborated in a lighter, more delicate style, showcasing the purity of the fruit.

On the nose, it invites you in with an enticing bouquet of fresh wild strawberries, tart gooseberries, and subtle floral undertones. The palate is bone-dry and refreshingly crisp, delivering bright red fruit flavors with a silky texture that remains lively until the very last drop. It is a testament to Susana Balbo's innovative approach, proving that Malbec can be just as sophisticated in a pale pink guise as it is in its more famous red form.

This wine is the ultimate food-friendly companion. Its bright acidity and delicate fruit profile make it the perfect partner for a wide array of dishes. Pair it with a fresh green salad topped with goat cheese, grilled fish tacos, or pork tenderloin straight from the grill. It is also an exceptional partner for a classic Argentine-style barbecue, effortlessly cutting through the richness of grilled meats, sausages, and empanadas. Whether you are hosting a summer garden party or looking for a versatile bottle to elevate a casual weeknight meal, the Crios Rosé of Malbec is an approachable, reliable, and incredibly delicious choice that brings a touch of Argentine sunshine to your glass.
