Colomé Altura Máxima Malbec 2019 is a distinguished wine from the Calchaquí Valley, Argentina, crafted from grapes sourced from one of the highest vineyards globally, situated 3,100 metres above sea level. This Malbec exhibits a rich dark purple hue with aromas of plum, blackberry and subtle spices, coupled with a mineral backbone. The vineyard`s unique conditions, characterised by a considerable diurnal temperature variation and alluvial, sandy soils rich in granite, allow for a concentrated flavour profile while maintaining acidity. Bodega Colomé, established in 1831, holds the title of the oldest winery in Argentina, adding historical significance to its exceptional wines.
