Colomé Winery

Truly in the middle of nowhere! but definitly worth it. The drive from Cafayate is not that far in terms of distance but it's 4 to 5 hours of a very difficult drive on dirt roads in mediocre condition but the scenery is definitely worth the effort: stunning and beautiful. A fair part of the Argentinian road system (this is a National Road!) reminds me of my travels in Central Africa... |Estancia Colome is a beautiful place and the rooms are most spacious and comfortable, perfectly equipped (the only hotel in our Argentinian tour providing a Nespresso machine in the rooms!), with a door to the beautiful garden with a very nice swimming pool hidden in the middle of the garden. Beautiful spacious bathroom, very well equipped (the only thing missing is a bathtub).|The wine tour and the museum visit were done with a very charming young lady, Sabrina, who is amazingly knowledgeable about wines and considering I have teached wine I can judge. Sabrina was also overlooking our dinner which proved to be a very pleasant experience.|The museum has nothing to do with wine but is quite impressing.|We just regretted our stay was for one night only and would recommend this place to anybody.|I will only point I regret on the wine side: the tasting is only on 4 wines when the estate produces wines from approximately 10 varietals and there is no possibility to taste anything else but Torrontes or Malbec: it would definitely be a good idea to be equipped with a Coravin type of sytem allowing connaisseurs to sample more varietals.

Staying at Bodega y Estancia Colomé was an experience like no other. Location: The location is simply out of this world, offering a peaceful and breathtaking setting that's hard to beat. Service: The service was impeccable, with just a tiny criticism about the drink service at the pool, which could use a bit of improvement. However, this minor issue didn't overshadow the overall excellent service. Rooms: The rooms were fantastic, with great views of the vineyards, and the fireplace added a cozy touch. It was a truly comfortable and memorable stay. Food and Drinks: The food at the hotel was of the highest quality, offering delicious meals. But what stood out were the wines – they were out of this world. Being able to drink wines that grow right at the hotel was a unique and enjoyable experience. The added perk of hotel guests having access to the James Turrell Museum and private Estate Tour was a nice touch. In summary, this hotel is nothing short of breathtaking. Everything about it is great, and I highly recommend it for a memorable and luxurious experience. Thank you Colomé!

Just had a wonderful couples visit to La Colomé Bodega. Daniel gave us a tour of the winery on horse back which included photo stops and what great scenery and dramatic landscape with the backdrop of the Andes and Nevada Cachi. Elena my horse was a sweetheart, didn’t need much coaxing to go the right way! Connie, the manager and her team were brilliant and incredibly thoughtful, due to our unusually very early check out admin was done early afternoon and lunchboxes for breakfast provided for the 4.5 hour drive back to Salta and what a drive, fabulous.||We were here for the wine. Sabrina gaves us a great tour of the estate, The James Turrell art museum and conducted a very interesting wine tasting session. ||Colomé surpassed all our expectations, I hope to return at some point, and will be recommending to all my friends.

The location indeed possesses breathtaking beauty, making it a destination worthy of the journey, and an aura of enchantment surrounds it.||||Regrettably, the standards of hospitality fell significantly short of expectations, leading to a reluctance to endorse this establishment. During my stay, I found myself feeling quite confined, with an unsettling atmosphere prevailing. Contrary to the promise of an open and inviting ambiance, little effort was made to accommodate guest requests. Even though the welcome letter alluded to activities such as horseback riding and hikes, I was informed at the front desk, after a lengthy wait, that these experiences required a 48-hour advance booking. There was no acknowledgment or indication of an attempt to accommodate my desires.||||Moreover, the dining facility only opens for specific meal times - breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Outside of these hours, access to even a simple cup of coffee at 7 am was denied, as the doors remained locked until 8 am. This rigid schedule evoked a sense of institutional confinement reminiscent of my time in a boarding school. The entire establishment seemed markedly unwelcoming, in stark contrast to other options where warmth and attentive care are readily provided.||||My unplanned departure after just one night was marked by considerable frustration, as I felt restricted to the confines of my room. Additionally, the pool lacked heating, and the absence of towels and service left guests with limited opportunities to enjoy their time amidst the natural beauty of the surroundings. There are undoubtedly alternative choices that offer a more hospitable and accommodating experience.

A very luxurious retreat. Very serene and peaceful atmosphere “at the edge of the world”. The rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated and well appointed. They are partly situated around a cosy patio. The public areas are immaculately clean and beautiful. Dinner and breakfast are excellent and so is the wine tasting. The James Turrell museum that is part of the complex is beyond imagination. It can rival with a Guggenheim! Beautiful pool on the winery grounds between the vineyards. Very very highly recommended. An extraordinary place. How lucky that we could be guests here for two nights.

This is an exceptional hotel. Not an easy drive but we did it in standard 2WD fiat. It’s in a very isolated place, v quiet with lovely pool and grounds. The magic starts at 6.30pm with wine tasting in the bodega (PS please get better glasses and let us taste your best wines: we have driven a long way!). |Next a visit to the outstanding museum. I was a bit of a sceptic to start but the art is exceptional.|Dinner at 9, with drinks served outside or in the absolute beautiful library surrounded by exquisite original art and furnishings. Candles, the fountain and warm air. Can’t get much better|Dinner again is served in a beautiful room with more artwork ( ? Original Matisse). |Great breakfast etc etc. |PS the return journey should be via Molinos. The more direct route looks a bit shabby.

Everything is amazing here. Better if you come with a good driver ((Andeschallenge). Because the road takes time and it is not always easy. But Colomé deserves the effort. It is a kind of luxurious oasis with plenty of kind people looking after you. We loved the experience Colomé, enjoyed wine tasting and have been amazed by James Thurell Museum. Diner was delicious, and also brakfast. Unforgettable evening watching the stars and the vineyards. We loved.

This is the gem of Valles Calchaquíes. Magnificent property located within Colomé winery, built in a contemporary colonial style, offers evey single taste of calchaquí culture, norteño design and vineyard life. Outstanding rooms: perfect bedding, great bathroom, lovely terrace, tastefull decoration. The common areas are beautiful, with the highlight of the central patio and its fountain. The library and bar are delightful and the restaurant is wonderful. Gourmet experience was top notch every night, with a different 3 course meals offer with local produce and delicious options. Colomé wines are indeed the perfect match for every menu there. Special mention for the al fresco areas, gardens, yards and pool (one of the best swimmingpools, the only drawback is that it's not tempered). The visit of the winery and James Turrell museum are highlights durign the stay, as well as strolling across the vineyards. Staff is very attentive and friendly. This place represents the best accommodation that you may find in Valles Calchaquíes. An experience not to be miss.
