Profile & Story
Bodega Colomé, founded in 1831 in Salta's Calchaquí Valley, is Argentina's oldest winery and home to some of the highest vineyards in the world, with plantings up to nearly 10,200 feet. The Estate Malbec blends fruit from four vineyards at different altitudes — from the ripe, fruit-forward La Brava at 1,700 meters to the mineral, high-elevation Altura Máxima — each contributing a different layer of character.
