Bodega Colome Malbec Altura Maxima 19 750ML

Passion, persistence and ruthless determination led Donald Hess to plant one of the most elevated vineyards in the world at3,111 masl (10,200 ft) in Salta, Argentina. Our icon wine is thehighest expression of a Malbec grown in extreme terroir. With the Andes as the backdrop and close to the borders of Bolivia andChile, the Salta region of Argentina is less accessible than better knowwine regions in the country – some have called the area impenetrable. The true expression of terroir in this Malbec comes from the extremealtitude at which the vineyard sites, it receives much more sun, much lessUV protection, producing thicker skinned grapes that deliver a morerobust mouthfeel supported by fresh acidity. Since 2005, Winemaker Thibaut Delmotte has crafted wines ofdistinction and international acclaim for Bodega Colom while staying true his French origins.
