Cono Sur Organic Chardonnay 2009
“The following list of winners spans the globe, but make no mistake, the Cono Sur is the number 1 winner by a mile.”
Anthony Gismondi/International Value Wine Awards/CanadaJeremy - USA
” A year or so ago I had the opportunity to enjoy a fair amount of your wine while visiting friends in Santiago. Your reds where the first that I ever enjoyed. As I recall I drank mainly wines from your Bicycle and Reserva lines.”
Jeremy - USACono Sur 20 Barrels Limited Edition Sauvignon Blanc 2009
“Really ripe, but well-focused, with lemon verbena and lemon pound cake flavors at the core, offset by bracing lime, chive and sea salt notes. Shows excellent length and focus”
James Molesworth/Wine Spectator/USACono Sur Organic Sauvignon Blanc 2009
“Once in a while you find something truly exciting at a killer price and this is it. Very aromatic nose with grapefruit, melon, peach, canned jalapeño, lime, floral, green apple aromas. Ripe, round, juicy and vibrant palate with sweet ripe fruit of melon with lime, grapefruit, smoky jalapeño, passion fruit and orange flavours. Good concentration, [...]
Cono Sur Cabernet Sauvignon - Carmenere 2008
“This red is a blend of organically grown grapes from the Colchagua Valley. The cassis flavoured Cabernet Sauvignon appears to blend effortlessly into the Carmenère with its dried herbs, black cherry and chocolate fruit flavours. Soft and sappy it is ready to drink and is best served with grilled meats or chicken.”

“New, organic un-oaked chardonnay under screwcap that is ridiculously tasty for the price. Look for gooseberry, and spicy aromas. The entry is fresh, crisp and just off-dry with nettle, lemon, grapefruit, gooseberry, passion fruit flavours and a touch of grass. Love the juicy mineral, green guava finish. Buy this one buy the truckload.”

“I recently had the distinct pleasure of trying…your Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah and I was pleasantly surprised. I would not call myself a connoisseur, I know only what I like and you have found yourself a devoted fan. Looking to try all of your wines that are carried at the Ontario (Canada) liquor board stores. [...]
