Bodega Colomé Autentico 2012

Calchaqui Valley, Salta, North, ArgentinaThe vineyards are grown and worked using sustainable practices thus presenting the "authentic" expression of the terroir. The winery practises pigeage, does not use commercial yeasts or lactic bacteria to speed up the fermentation. Acid correction and the use of sulphur dioxide is minimal and it has no oak influence. There is no filtration leaving the tannins to soften in the bottle with age. Expect a black colour with dark fruit aromas. The plate is a mix of spice and figs with some stony elements. Impressive for its age and what was a difficult vintage in Salta.Tasted: 24 July 2015Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
