2019 Colomé Estate Torrontés
October 2020
“Aromatics are in high gear for this high elevation-grown white. Scents of lemon and caramel offer a spice. An exacting grapefruit tartness and chamomile floral quality meet up with subtle peach on the palate. A freshness owes its favor to a vibrant acidity.”

2016 Colomé Altura Máxima Malbec
Kim Marcus, Wine Spectator, December 2019
“Ripe aromas and concentrated flavors of roasted plum, tar and black licorice make for a dense, brooding style. Intense smokiness shows midpalate, with beefy accents on the finish. Best from 2021 through 2025. 900 cases made, 300 cases imported.”

2018 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, June 2019
“Bright yellow. Lovely nose melds lemon, menthol, dried herbs, lichee and ginger. Then almost surprisingly round, sweet and large-scaled in the mouth; quite full for Torrontés but also vibrant thanks to its healthy acidity (reportedly 6.7 grams per liter). A turpenic resiny quality is nicely countered by bright citricity and a floral note. This seriously palate-saturating Torrontés finishes long and outsized, with a slightly phenolic character. A rather extreme style from high-altitude vines (up to 7,500 feet) but it works. (made entirely in stainless stee”

2020 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Luis Gutiérrez, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, March 2021
“There are subtle notes of jasmine and orange blossom in the nose of the 2020 Estate Torrontés, which was harvested at the end of February before the heat wave at 13.5% alcohol, keeping a low pH and good acidity with grapes from vineyards at 1,700 and 2,300 meters in altitude. It fermented in stainless steel and was kept there for one month before being bottled. The finish is very dry, with a chalky sensation akin to limestone soils and chalk. 120,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2020.”

2019 Colomé Auténtico Malbec
Luis Gutiérrez, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, March 2021
“The dark and brooding 2019 Auténtico Malbec had to be harvested quickly because of a heat wave during the harvest. Eighty-five percent of the volume matured in stainless steel and the rest in concrete egg. To be honest, it feels a little flat in the palate and has plenty of notes of ripe black fruit, not as vibrant as some past vintages... 65,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2020.”

2017 Colomé 1831 Malbec
James Suckling, James Suckling, April 2020
“This has a deep and dark, purple-fruit nose with violets and brambly dark plums pervading the palate. Very rich in flavor. Drink over the next five years.”

2019 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast, July 2020
“Aromas of lemon, lime and pastry dusted with powdered sugar lead to a round palate with citrus-like acidity. Pineapple and melon flavors come with a touch of salt, while the palate feels full with a slight grip. Drink now.”

2019 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Kim Marcus, Wine Spectator, June 2020
“The gooseberry and lemon lime flavors show peach accents. The juicy finish lingers with curry notes. Drink now. 8,500 cases made, 3,500 cases imported”

2019 Amalaya Malbec
Jancis Robinson, March 2020
“85% Malbec, with Tannat and Petit Verdot at 1,800 m. A less-expensive sister brand to Colomé founded in 2010. Polished and sweet. Admirably light bottle. Without the drama of some high-altitude wines but well made and pleasing.”

2019 Amalaya Malbec
James Suckling, James Suckling,
“A dusty, chewy red with plenty of tannins and blackberry and smoky flavor. It’s full-bodied and very flavorful. Drink or hold. Screw cap.”
