The Crios (children in Spanish) series was born out of Susana Balbo's love for her children and her desire to pass on her winery and business philosophy to future generations.
Crios Malbec, which is the winery's entry-level Malbec, is a typical and pure expression of the varietal, with a dark ruby red color and aromas of violet, mocha, black cherry and spice.
Juicy tannins, balanced acidity, ripe fruit, and a subtle barrel presence add complexity. With all these characteristics and its tempting price, it is no surprise that it was selected by Decanter magazine as one of the 3 best value-for-money Malbecs.
Hand harvested, fermented at a controlled temperature of up to 28ºC and 25 days of maceration. 40% of the wine was matured in third and fourth-year French oak barrels for 8 months.
