Founded in 1831, Bodega Colomé is Argentina's oldest working winery and is currently part of the Hess Family Wine Estates, following a philosophy of high-altitude viticulture and sustainable farming. The 'Auténtico' label is a tribute to the winery’s ancestors and original 19th-century winemaking style, crafted from estate-grown fruit at an extreme altitude of 2,300 metres above sea level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWine Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis full-bodied red wine typically presents an intense, almost black colour with deep violet tones. The sensory profile for the 2016 vintage is concentrated and robust, featuring a fragrant nose of plums, black cherries, and blackberries layered with notes of wild herbs, cloves, and a stony minerality. On the palate, it is described as lush and dark, offering flavours of black raspberries and dark fruit supported by firm, round tannins and a refreshing acidity. The finish is powerful and long, showcasing complexity and depth without the influence of wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal Composition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Malbec.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e Typically 14.5%.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrganic Status:\u003c\/strong\u003e The estate utilizes sustainable and low-intervention farming practices, including biodiversity and zero chemical use, though specific organic certification for this vintage is not explicitly stated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStylistic Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 'Auténtico' is an unoaked expression of Malbec produced using ancient techniques such as \u003cem\u003epigeage\u003c\/em\u003e (punch-down) and natural fermentations without commercial yeasts.
