Producer Information
Viña Cobos winery is the acclaimed wine producer belonging to international winemaker Paul Hobbs. Having worked in Argentina since 1988, Paul Hobbs became so convinced of the potential of Argentine Malbec that he started his own winery, Viña Cobos, in the heart of Mendoza’s Luján de Cuyo in 1999. Twenty years on and Viña Cobos is one of the most respected producers of single-vineyard Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay in Argentina. Focused on the Uco Valley and Luján de Cuyo, the Cobos wines are complex, concentrated, polished and increasingly vibrant. Young Head Winemaker Andrés Vignoni is proving to be one of the most accomplished winemakers of the new generation. Cobos is their top-of-line brand, Bramare is an exciting single-vineyard range, and Felino is their worthy entry-level range.
