esbrown reviewed Crios de Susana Balbo Torrontés 2004 on April 4, 2005 From the Torrontes grape, a cross between Muscat de Alexandria and Criolla Chica, which happens to be the most planted white varietal in Argentina. Crisp, light and citrusy with a nice floral component layered on top of stone fruits. The finish has very nice acidity but it also has a heavy toast/vanilla quality that would lead one to think oak even though this wine sees none. From the Salta province north of Mendoza. |
