Colomé 1831 Malbec
Calchaqui Valley, Salta, Argentina
Planted in 1831, the estate vineyard at Colomé is this inspiration for this wine and a tribute to our history and to my father-in-law Donald Hess who came to Colomé with vision, passion and a desire to craft the world’s greatest Malbecs. Aged in both new and used French oak barrels for 18 months, this wine exhibits dark fruit notes followed by well-structured tannins that give backbone and a plush mouthfeel to the wine - Christoph Ehrbar.
Tasting Notes
Intense red color with purple hues. Elegant and complex, with ripe black fruit and floral and spicy notes complemented by delicate and integrated notes from its oak aging. A fruity, concentrated and balanced wine with marked acidity, round tannins and great body.
