Bodega Colome Estate Series Salta Torrontes 2023
£15.00
Bodega Colomé was established in 1831 and is the oldest working winery in Argentina with one of the world’s highest vineyards. The winery is in the far north of Argentina in the Upper Calchaquí Valley. The fruit for this wine comes from 90 year old vines in the Colomé vineyard, which is 2,300 metres in altitude.
Light gold in colour with green tones, this wine has a bright floral nose with citrus aromas of grapefruit and a hint of spice. On the palate, it is fresh and has good fatness with a crisp finish. The wine is elegant and fruity with tropical notes.
Food-wise this is a very versatile wine which works wonderfully with traditional fare such as roast chicken, all types of seafood and more spicy dishes such as Thai coconut curry. Cheese-wise, I find a Pecorino is a great match.
