Colome Malbec 2007, a great value at ultrapremium quality


Colome Malbec 2007, By  Bodega Colome (Hess Colection), USD 25-30
Outstanding Malbec from Cafayate Valley ,Salta 

(northern ARG).
Plenty of complexity and deepness. What a complete malbec should look like. What a Cafayate´s Malbec should bring along too.Red and black fruits, ripe and balanced in a sour-sweetness impressive. Chocolate and toast notes to round it up.Very wide palate and long aftertaste. Not very complex to reach the sky though. A Malbec to enjoy at large. A high quality red 94 points to enjoy now and cellar 4-6 years from vintage. It´ll be nice after 8 years but I don´t feel it´ll be better than now. Great value for a high quality (ultrapremium) malbec.
