Colomé Reserva Malbec 2010

Sourced from one of the most elevated vineyards in the world, this momumental Malbec is a deep, inky purple-crimson affair in the glass. Intricate and complex suggestions of black olive, truffle, dark chocolate, black pepper, blackberry, currants and smoke. Massively concentrated with a mouthfeel like carved marble, it shows a fascinating interplay of spice, mocha, fruit and smoke with a remarkably long, layered finish. Could cellar for a decade, but superb now. Pair with a seared cut of sirloin or rib-eye topped with shaved truffle. (VINTAGES panel, June 2014)
