Bodega Colome, te quiero mucho!

Hi there,

As you probably now by now, Ophelie and I are residing at the winery from Mr. Donald Hess, Bodega Colome.
Yesterday evening, when we arrived, we both couldn`t believe our eyes when entering our room ( a junior suite :-). This is the most impressive room I`ve ever been in!!!
Full domotica, background music, firehood, a gigantic shower, very high roof (like the "schuur" in Montenaken!!)

We had a marvellous dinner last night accompanied with the "Colome Estate" wine ( 85% Malbec, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Syrah)... superb, and going very well together with the "riz de veau" and the veal saltimbocca and the assortment of local cheeses!

Today, the weather was beautiful again, and we only discovered now how extremely beautiful this place is! I made a few dozens of pictures.
We started with a great breakfast and a visit to the winery, very interesting.

After that, we relaxed at the superb pool side and socialized with a friendly Brit :-)
The lunch was nice and with a view on one of the highest mountains in the Andes (>6000 m).

This afternoon we went... horseback riding in the valley of the Colome Rio, yes, even Ophelie :-)
It was unbelievable and great fun!

Now we will have our last meal (laatste avondmaal on Easter :-) before leaving tomorrow to Tucuman and the airport.

Tomorrow evening we hopefully arrive on time in Buenos Aires where we will spend a morning before leaving by car to El Rocio in the Gaucho area, the Pampas.

HAPPY EASTER FROM THE ANDES AND COLOME.

Cheers,

Mr and Mrs Boes
