This dark-fruited red has smoky and salty undertones to the black-plum, black-olive and clove aromas. It’s full-bodied and concentrated, with deliciously spicy and salty character and berry-soaked tannins. Deep and compact. Drink or hold.

The 2023 Malbec Auténtico comes from Estancia Colomé and is crafted in a primary, unoaked style. Intense purple, its aromas reveal blackberry, a hint of chili pepper and a sharp balsamic touch with notable intensity and slight reduction. Indulgent and broad with plush textures and fine tannins, it offers pure flavors and remarkable palate intensity. The northern sun has made this long, powerful and full of flavor.

Opens with bold notes of molasses, olive and Mission fig but then reveals a core of fresh berries and plum. Turns savory on the finish, adding dried tobacco and loam details, with structured tannins. Nice length. Drink now through 2036. 6,500 cases made, 1,530 cases imported.
