Susana Balbo, Valle de Uco (Mendoza, Argentina) Signature “Brioso” White Blend 2017

 ($24, Folio Fine Wine Partners):  Susana Balbo has fashioned a captivating ying-yang of a white wine.  Floral and seductively aromatic, it delivers a hint of sweetness that is balanced perfectly with bracing acidity.   The overall impression is that of a clean, fresh and lively wine.  It would do well as a stand-alone aperitif or be a fine match for spicy Asian fare.
