Malbec Valle Calchaquí - Bodega Colomé

In the glass, the Malbec Valle Calchaquí from Bodega Colomé reveals a dense purple color. Poured into a red wine glass, this red wine from Argentina offers wonderfully expressive aromas of mulberry, plum, blackberry and black currant, rounded off by air-dried ham, toasted barrique and sun-warmed rocks contributed by aging in wooden barrels.

This Argentine wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with 3.4 grams of residual sugar. This is a true quality wine, which clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so this Argentine naturally enchants with the finest balance despite all dryness. Excellent taste does not necessarily need a lot of residual sugar. Due to its present fruit acidity, the Malbec Valle Calchaquí reveals itself exceptionally fresh and lively on the palate. In the finish, this youthful from the wine-growing region Valle Calchaquì finally inspires with considerable length. There are again hints of plum and blueberry. In the aftertaste, mineral notes of the soils dominated by sand are added.
