Exploring Susana Balbo Wines
November 14th 7PM
Host: Pablo Tome
This Franklin Wine Club event is a sit-down wine tasting/educational event held in the Franklin Liquors wine room.
Susana Balbo is a family-run winery, focused on high-end wine production, located in Mendoza, Argentina, at the foothills of the Andes mountain range. It was founded in 1999 by Susana Balbo, Argentina's first female winemaker.
After ten years of sustained growth on international markets, another of Susana’s biggest dream came true when her children, José and Ana, decided to join her team and work side by side with her in order to continue to build up the family legacy. The new family generation and a team of over a hundred people work daily to deliver high-end wines with a methodic care for detail; thus seeking to make the wine industry grow in terms of investigation, innovation and sustainability. In essence, Susana Balbo’s large family share the same spirit and conviction: a great passion for making high quality wines.
Their winemaking team focuses on a work philosophy that combines a deep knowledge of Argentina’s best soils, an endless curiosity and passion for art and science behind winemaking abilities, and a strong commitment to sustainable practices.. These convictions led to the creation of four lines of wines: Nosotros, Susana Balbo Signature, Crios and BenMarco.
