Our Family owns about 70 hectares (173 acres) of vineyards with great exposures in the most highly rated regions of Piemonte.
The location of our vineyards in a variety of areas was not chosen randomly, but was determined by our strong belief in blending the different characteristics of each vineyard and region in order to produce wines that represent the styles of each appellation terroir as a whole, instead of individual sites.
This was the classic method of producing Barolo, Barbaresco and the other classic wines at the end of the 19th century and it still remains our Family’s philosophy, today and in the future.
If the first known reference to Lafite dates back to 1234, with a Gombaud de Lafite, abbot of the Vertheuil Monastery north of Pauillac, the existence of Lafite as a medieval lordship is attested from the fourteenth century. Lafite’s name comes from the Gascon “la hite”, meaning the mound. There were probably already vineyards on the property, but it was with the Ségurs, in the 17th century, that the vineyard was structured and Lafite’s reputation as a great wine estate consolidated. Jacques de Ségur was at the origin of the plantation of the Lafite vineyard around 1670 and in the early 1680s. In 1695, Jacques de Ségur’s heir son, Alexandre, took the Château Latour heiress as his wife and the union will give Birth of Nicholas-Alexandre de Ségur. The two stately domains of Lafite and Latour thus come together for the beginning of a common wine history.

Amalaya was Donald Hess first investment in Argentina in the vineyards of Arenal. It represented the “Hope for a Miracle”, a plantation in an unused land, no one ever sowed soil before, not even the Incas. Amalaya was the word that captivated Hess from the very first day.

Years later, Colomé’s expansion drove him to search for the versatility of the New World, in a quest to find new wines.

Nineteen crimes turned convicts into colonists. Upon conviction British rogues guilty of at least one of the 19 crimes were sentenced to live in Australia, rather than death.

It represented the “Hope for a Miracle”, a plantation in an unused land, no one ever sowed soil before, not even the Incas. Amalaya was the word that captivated Hess from the very first day.

The idea was to find alternative varieties for Malbec to make a great product. “If blends are successful in the Old World, why can’t we have them here?”, were the words uttered by Donald Hess in 2003. Years later, Colomé’s expansion drove him to search for the versatility of the New World, in a quest to find new wines.
