MICHELIN Honors Vision of Pioneering Winemaker Susana Balbo And Daughter Ana Lovaglio With Inaugural Star at LaVidA Restaurant in Mendoza, Argentina, Osadía De Crear Maintains Green Star & MICHELIN Recommendation in the 2026 Guide
MENDOZA, AR / ACCESS Newswire / October 26, 2026 / Argentina's first female winemaker and celebrated "Queen of Torrontés," Susana Balbo, alongside her daughter, Ana Lovaglio, mark a new milestone in their evolution into luxury hospitality with three honors in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide. La VidA, the signature restaurant at Susana Balbo Winemaker's House & Spa Suites, earned its first MICHELIN Star, while Osadía de Crear at Susana Balbo Winery retained its MICHELIN Green Star and MICHELIN Recommended distinction. Founded by Ana Lovaglio and led by Executive Chef Flavia Amad, the restaurants offer distinct expressions of contemporary Mendocinian dining, while both naturally pair seasonal Argentine ingredients, refined technique and the region's most celebrated wines with experiences ranging from a winemaking-inspired tasting menu to sustainability-driven cuisine rooted in the estate's gardens and local producers. The recognitions underscore the evolution of Susana's four-decade legacy in wine into a broader vision for gastronomy and luxury hospitality, alongside Ana, whose vision has shaped the family's restaurants, guest experiences, and growing hospitality portfolio.
