2020 Amalaya Gran Corte Malbec
Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, November 2022
“2020 was quite different in the north than in Mendoza, as in Salta it was a rainier year. The harmonious and elegant 2020 Gran Corte shows very well, with nuance and subtleness, serious, with moderate ripeness. It's a blend of Malbec with 9% Cabernet Franc and 6% Tannat that feels very integrated and complementing each other. It matured in neutral, well-seasoned oak barrels for 12 months. A bargain. 100,000 bottles.”

Jesica Vargas, Wine Enthusiast, July 2023
“All grapes for this blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Malbec, 19% Cabernet Franc and 6% Petit Verdot were sourced from Susana Balbo's estate in Agrelo. It's lively with elegant acidity and plush tannins. Aromas of cherry, raspberry, licorice and rosemary rise from the glass. This wine has a core of redfruit flavors wrapped in light notes of green bell pepper and coffee.”

2022 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Ken Hoggins, Ken's Wine Guide, June 2023
“This pale straw colored Torrontes opens with a very fragrant lychee and yellow peach bouquet with hints of papaya, rose petal and grapefruit. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is round, bright, and slightly viscous. The flavor profile is a tasty lychee, yellow peach, and sage blend with notes of saline and orange zest. The finish is dry, and its flavors and acidity are nicely prolonged. I would serve this Torrontes slightly chilled with crispy baked scallops. Enjoy.”

2022 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Christy Canterbury, New Wine Review, June 2023
“Super aromatic, this smells of tangerine peel, blood orange, nectarine core and spring jasmine. The palate is firm and crisp but not cuttingly dry. The plump, mid-weight palate has plenty of fruit to buffer the precise structure. Juicy from start to lengthy finish, this is layered in perfumes and flavors. It may be polarizing for its exuberant aromatics, but its intensity, dryness and well-rounded structure are impressive.”

2020 Isole e Olena Chianti Classico DOCG
Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, May 2023
“The Isole e Olena 2020 Chianti Classico opens to a dark ruby color and medium concentration. The bouquet offers pretty fruit aromas with dried cherry and raspberry. Those bright primary tones segue to crushed stone and potting soil. This playful, entry-level wine ends with a bright spot of sweet cherry.”

Charles Heidsieck Blanc de Blancs
Yohan Castaing, Wine Advocate, April 2023
“Disgorged in 2022, the latest release of the Charles Heidsieck NV Blanc de Blancs is elaborated with 30% of reserve wines, of which 10% to 12% are aged in old barrels. It has a captivating bouquet with aromas of honeysuckle, lemon oil, citrus, peach, tangerine and delicate hints of pastry, followed by a medium to full-bodied, round and creamy, layered and elegant palate that finishes with chalky and brioche notes. A little time in the cellar will be more than profitable.”

2022 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Aaron Romano, Wine Spectator, January 2023
“A textbook Torrontés, showing geranium, peach and Meyer lemon aromas up front, this picks up rich candied orange peel and juicy peach notes, which have just enough acidity to keep the floridness in check. Drink now. 12,000 cases made, 3,000 cases imported.””

2020 BenMarco Expresivo
Jesica Vargas, Wine Enthusiast, July 2023
“As the name suggests, this wine is expressive. Coming from vineyards in Gualtallary, this has a nose of black fruit and nutmeg, with a touch of salt. The palate is savory, exhibiting intense plum and fig flavors. A hint of black olive adds to its complexity. Soft tannins provide enough support to this full-bodied red.”

2020 Colomé El Arenal Malbec
Jesica Vargas, Wine Enthusiast, July 2023
“This wine comes from Payogasta in the Calchaquí Valleys, at 8,530 feet. Grapes at this altitude endure intense sunlight and diurnal temperature variation. Dried cherry, strawberry jam and hints of chalk fill the nose of this Malbec. A good structure holds plum, blackberry and strawberry. It finishes with smoke and herbaceous notes”
