Introducing 'The Weekly Drop', a new feature from Rogers & Company.
 
Look for it every week as we share a quick taste of news about one of our winery partners, new releases, or the wines we are enjoying now.  We will continue to publish our in depth newsletter every month or so.

To kick things off, we are celebrating Andrés Vignoni, winemaker at Viña Cobos, who was just awarded the prestigious "Young Winemaker of the Year"  title by Tim Atkin, Master of Wine (MW) in his '2020 Argentina Special Report'.  Congratulations Andrés!

Viña Cobos, which was founded over 20 years ago by legendary California winemaker Paul Hobbs, turns out incredible, terroir-driven wines. Atkin has also classified Viña Cobos as an Argentinian "First Growth", and their Malbecs are amongst the best being produced in Argentina. (Those who follow acclaimed critic James Suckling will know he is also a big fan.)

We have Viña Cobos' "Felino" Chardonnay, Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon in stock and all are ridiculous values at $21.45 per bottle (taxes in, cases of 12 bottles).  And for a more regional expression, we have their Bramare Lujan de Cuyo Malbec 2017 at $47.15 per bottle, in cases of 6.

Viña Cobos "Felino" Malbec 2018
$21.45 per 750ml bottle, cases of 12
 
"Now largely unwooded (only 10% of the wine sees new French oak), this is a classic Mendoza combination of fruit from Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley. Scented, detailed and fine, it has alluring violet aromas, supple black cherry and blackberry flavours and a combination of weight and freshness. 2021-26."
93 points, Tim Atkin MW, 2020 Argentina Report

"A juicy and savoury red with dried berry and iron. Some rust. Medium to full body, firm and silky tannins and a flavourful finish. Has some backbone and structure. Drink or hold."
