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.
Creating means having the courage to be vulnerable. An entrepreneurial, revolutionary and pioneering spirit performs best when driven by courage and tenacity. This intrepid spirit is reflected in the winery’s history. Despite several failed attempts and a country’s fragile social and economical context, Susana finally founded her own winery, thus achieving her lifelong dream: to create wines with her signature personality under her own name.
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.
Our 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.
