| Description: | James Suckling 92 Points - "a very clean, fruity cabernet with blackberry and blueberry character. Medium-bodied with creamy tannins. Fresh finish. Drink or hold.". An exquisitely balanced cabernet sauvignon to be highlighted. Its spicy and fruity character outstands. The intense ruby red color anticipates a complex, appealing wine. On the nose, the freshness of the red fruit and the herbal notes like freshly cut grass complements the spicy notes of black pepper, clove and cinnamon, as well cedar and tobacco. Great freshness on the palate, good acidity, sweet tannins and great intensity for a very well-integrated wine with a persistent finish. Vina Cobos is the inspired vision of three dreamers who one day undertook the challenge of producing great Argentine red wine that would be on par with the best-known wines of the world. From that moment, Andrea Marchiori, Luis Barraud and Paul Hobbs started to make noble wines of superior quality, placing Malbec and Argentina on stage with the world's greatest wine producers. Paul first experienced Argentina in 1989 and was immediately intrigued by the cultural tradition of the country and by the terroir - being pleasantly surprised by its extraordinary potential for growing Malbec and other varietals. Andrea and Luis, both from Mendoza and each with a strong family heritage linked to viticulture, travelled to California in 1997 to perfect their work as winemakers. There they met Paul, with whom they shared their vision of producing ultra-premium wines in Argentina. Following this encounter, they decided to create Vina Cobos, and named the winery after the street where the very special Marchiori vineyard is located. |
