2017 Colomé Estate Malbec
Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast, July 2020
“Toasty black fruit aromas are herbal but also lively. A lush and saturated palate is a true mouth filler, while this Malbec pumps out blackberry and crème de cassis flavors prior to a heady finish that comes up short on complexity and nuance. This is entirely about fruit, fruit and more fruit.”

2018 Colomé Auténtico Malbec
Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast, July 2020
“A deeply saturated black-meets-purple color and cool aromas of herbal blackberry, cola and minerals open this lush Malbec from Salta. A sappy palate is dense and full bodied, while this tastes of wild berry, cassis and balsamic reduction. A thick and sappy finish is fitting even though this sees no oak.”

2019 Colomé Auténtico Malbec
James Suckling, James Suckling, April 2020
“This is a big, concentrated, blackstrap and purple-colored sort of wine. Full-bodied and chewy. This is a little overdone, but it shows lots of character and intensity. Give it two or three years to soften and show more complexity. Better after 2022.”

2018 Colomé Auténtico Malbec
Kim Marcus, Wine Spectator, December 2019
“Offers a fine-grained texture, with precise red fruit and spice flavors that are well-structured and pure-tasting. The minerally finish features some peppery notes and plenty of verve. Drink now through 2025. 7,500 cases made, 3,000 cases imported.”

2017 Colomé Estate Malbec
Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, June 2019
“Bright, dark medium ruby. Lively aromas and flavors of crushed blackberry, licorice, bitter chocolate and mocha. Densely packed, fine-grained and savory, with its ripe, creamy flavors complicated by a wild gamey quality. As rich, concentrated and deep as this wine is, it's not over the top. This outstanding Malbec finishes ripely tannic and long, with compelling sweetness of fruit. (14.9% alcohol; this wine represents a blend of vineyards and altitudes in Calchaqui Valley; aged for 15 months in a mix of one- to ten-year-old French barriques)”

2020 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Vinous, October 2020
“A Torrontés from Cafayate where harvest time is key. Neither under- nor overripe, it presents aromas of orange blossom, lime and tuberose, and offers sparky freshness in the mouth, good volume for the variety, real intensity of flavor and a slightly bitter finish, as one would expect from a terpenic grape.”

2019 Colomé Estate Torrontés
October 2020
“Aromatics are in high gear for this high elevation-grown white. Scents of lemon and caramel offer a spice. An exacting grapefruit tartness and chamomile floral quality meet up with subtle peach on the palate. A freshness owes its favor to a vibrant acidity.”

2016 Colomé Altura Máxima Malbec
Kim Marcus, Wine Spectator, December 2019
“Ripe aromas and concentrated flavors of roasted plum, tar and black licorice make for a dense, brooding style. Intense smokiness shows midpalate, with beefy accents on the finish. Best from 2021 through 2025. 900 cases made, 300 cases imported.”

2018 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, June 2019
“Bright yellow. Lovely nose melds lemon, menthol, dried herbs, lichee and ginger. Then almost surprisingly round, sweet and large-scaled in the mouth; quite full for Torrontés but also vibrant thanks to its healthy acidity (reportedly 6.7 grams per liter). A turpenic resiny quality is nicely countered by bright citricity and a floral note. This seriously palate-saturating Torrontés finishes long and outsized, with a slightly phenolic character. A rather extreme style from high-altitude vines (up to 7,500 feet) but it works. (made entirely in stainless stee”
