El Arenal Malbec, Salta, Colome Estate

This extreme altitude single vineyard wine is a tribute to all those who dare to take the adventurous path, and do what has never been done before.This is what Donald and Ursula Hess did when they planted El Arenal, their first vineyard, at an incredible 2600 meters above sea level in the Upper Calchaqui Valley. Its name literally means sand, which is true to its rugged terroir, where grapes are stressed by intense sun and by cool nights.

Sustainably farmed grapes and the magic of El Arenal produce an incredibly sophisticated tannin structure, and result in a supreme balance of fruit, freshness, power, complexity and elegance that only this extreme altitude has to offer.

Very deep color, almost black, with purple rerfections. Elegant and complex nose: black fruit (blackberry, cherry), spicy (white pepper) and floral (violet) and mineral notes. Well integrated toasting of the barrels. On the palate it is very fruity, vibrant and concentrated, with good structure and firm tannins. Ageing: 12 months in French Oak Barrels, 6 months in bottle.
