From Susana Balbo Wines in Argentina's Mendoza region, the Signature Brioso 2022 is a refined Bordeaux-style blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Malbec, 18% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Petit Verdot sourced from the Finca Dominio vineyard in Agrelo, Luján de Cuyo, at nearly 1,000 meters elevation on clay-limestone soils that provide a cool microclimate for ripe yet balanced fruit.
Hand-harvested grapes undergo fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by 15 months' aging in 100% new French oak barrels to integrate structure and complexity while preserving elegance.
Tasting Notes A voluptuous, elegant Mendoza red with blackcurrant, cedar, and plum aromas, young textures with mature expressions, and pleasant freshness adding depth in every sip from Agrelo's high-altitude vineyards. The nose reveals blackcurrant, cedar, plum, and hints of violet and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet poised, with velvety tannins, bright acidity, and flavors of dark cherry, licorice, and mineral earthiness, leading to a long, persistent finish.
Serving and Cellaring Serve at 16-18°C with 45-60 minutes of decanting to unfold aromas. Ideal with grilled beef, roasted lamb, or aged cheeses. Enjoy now through 2035, developing greater leather and earthy nuances over time.
