Nosotros line celebrates the efforts of all the people who work day by day to make this wine and it is considered the winery’s “selection of selections”. This wine celebrates our story of courage, which began 25 years ago with the dream of the founder, Susana Balbo, the first female winemaker in Argentina. A second dream came true in 2012 when her two children, José and Ana, joined the family business. The Nosotros Library Edition Cabernet Sauvignon 2012 from Valle de Uco is a wine that stood out in that vintage and was stored in the family cellar. Today, we celebrate the 25 years with this grape variety, which we see as one of Argentina's hidden gems, as well as Susana's favorite variety. For more info, visit Susana Balbo website.
