Description

The historic Bodega Colome has been one of the driving forces in the worldwide growth of Malbec, in many thanks to brilliantly-priced quality wines such as this.

Established in 1831 in Salta’s Upper Calchaqui Valley, this region boasts some of the world's highest vineyards, from 2,300 to 3,311 meters above sea level.

Crafted from four distinct high-altitude vineyards, this Malbec showcases Argentina's diverse terroir. “La Brava” (1,700 masl) offers ripe fruit intensity, “Colomé” (2,300 masl) adds complexity, “El Arenal” (2,700 masl) lends elegance, and “Altura Máxima” (3,100 masl) contributes floral notes and fine tannins.

Drinking this wine is like floating through a velvet fog. Expect bright aromas of blackberries and exotic flowers, leading to a palate of rich black fruit, spiced oak, and hints of pepper. Its fresh acidity and bold tannins reflect the alpine freshness typical of high-altitude Argentine Malbec.

Produced from 100% biodynamic vineyards, it's plush, smooth and silky to drink. An excellent value full-bodied red from one of Argentina's most respected labels.

90 points - "Aromas of bramble fruit with a light note of violets form the bouquet. The palate is abundant in herbs and features optimal acidity and soft but firm tannins, holding black-fruit flavors and hints of tobacco on the midpalate." - Jesica Vargas (Wine Enthusiast)
