Colome Malbec ‘Autentico’ 2020

Higher altitudes offer more sun and less UV protection and produce a thicker-skinned grape that delivers a more robust taste with fresh acidity to support it. Today, this wine is crafted with a minimalist approach, no oak influence so the authentic expression of Malbec highlights the region’s terroir.

The wine comes mostly from vineyards more than 100 years old combined with 15-year-old vineyards located at 7,545 feet in elevation. Intense and almost black with violet hues, the nose highlights elegant spices and fresh floral aromas that lead to bright acidity and rich flavours of black and red fruits.

92 Points – James Suckling

A medium-to-full-bodied red with aromas of stewed cherries, cassis, oyster shells and smoked meat. Firm, grainy tannins and a chalky texture with fresh acidity.
