Colomé Malbec Estate 2011
Calchaqui Valley, Salta, North, ArgentinaThe blend is 85 malbec and 15 per cent tannat, cabernet sauvignon and petite verdot all grown in the upper Calchaqui Valley between 2300 and 3111 metres above sea level. It's all aged in French oak but only 20 per cent is new. Blackberries and blackcurrants mix with cherries and raspberries flecked by floral (violet) and mineral/iron notes. The attack is soft and round with fresh acidity and tasty black cherry, black olive, plum, liquorice and chocolate notes. Love the long warm savoury beef friendly finish. Delicious. A favourite on the Earls Restaurant reserve list. Tasted: 01 February 2014Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $30.00 | 750ml |
