Desde Siberia con Cono Sur
En una decisión sin precedentes, Viña Cono Sur y su distribuidor en Rusia, Fort Ltda., decidieron llevar al gerente de exportaciones de Cono Sur, Gonzalo Marina, donde ninguno de nuestros ejecutivos había ido antes –la siguiente parada tendría que ser el Polo Norte-: Siberia.
En una decisión sin precedentes, Viña Cono Sur y su distribuidor en [...]Cono Sur Pinot Noir 2005
“A new year from Cono Sur Pinot Noir 2005 and it’s still selling for less than $10. Cono Sur is releasing several new high-end Pinots but at this price, with these flavours it’s hard to walk past this bottle. Spicy, licorice root and black cherries all with a touch of earth. Be Sure to decant [...]
Cono Sur Chardonnay 2005
“Intense and beautifully golden. To the nose, tones of peach, syrup, honey tropical fruits and flowers prevail. Straightforward and balanced. Fresh mouth, fruity and with a slight citrus note. Friendly, balanced and smooth-flowing.”Tasting panel, La Cav Magazine / Chile
Cono Sur Viognier 2005
“Lively, aromatic style … delivers way more apple, peach and hawthorn-scented fruit than a sub-£4 new world white should”The Times Magazine / Jane Macquitty / UK.
Cono Sur Pinot Noir 2005
“Gentle, sweet, spiced plum of a new world Pinot Noir… disturbingly close to the burgundian original.”The Times Magazine / Jane Macquitty / UK.
Cono Sur Visión Gewürztraminer 2005
“The single most exciting current development in Chile is the range of fine white wines now emerging. I have seriously enjoyed various intensely varietal yet refreshing Gewürztraminers, including Cono Sur Visión Gewürztraminer 2005.”jancisrobinson.com / Jancis Robinson / UK
Cono Sur Pinot Noir 2005

Vibrant, somewhat piercing acidity in mouth. Fresh and lively flow. Pleasant and clean finish.”Tasting panel, La Cav Magazine / Chile

Cono Sur Visión Single Vineyard Riesling 2005
“This Cono Sur wine is a good approach to Riesling’s warmer side, but at the same time it’s very fruit-forward and alive. The floral and citrus notes integrate nicely, rendering a delicious and seductive fragrance. In mouth, the alcohol is noticeable but it is also subdued by pink grapefruit acidity, sharp and slightly bitter. The [...]
Cono Sur 20 Barrels Limited Edition Sauvignon Blanc 2005
“Subtle. Attention and curiosity are attracted to a frame of fresh herbs in nose. In mouth it’s citric and scarcely bitter, with a green lemon peel character that’s very sought after but hardly ever attained. Fresh and simple, a crunchy acidity and a nice finish make of this, one of the best Sauvignon Blanc wines [...]
Cono Sur Viognier 2005
“An openly tropical Chilean packed with perfume. Its pleasantly underplayed acidity and nice spicy flavour ring all the right bells with both light and heavy fromage.”The Halifax Daily / Peter Rockwell / Canada
Cono Sur 20 Barrels Limited Edition Sauvignon Blanc 2005
“This must be one of the most interesting releases of the year in Chile. A Sauvignon Blanc that dwells between its citrus aromas and the strong minerality of its flavours. As far as I’m concerned this is one of the best Sauvignon Blanc wines that you can find nowadays in the market.”planetavino.com / Patricio Tapia [...]
Cono Sur Sauvignon Blanc 2005
“Relatively new to the hugely successful Chilean Cono Sur range is this gentle green Sauvignon giant with the sort of fine, juicy, asparagus-charged fruit that works well both with food and without.”Times Magazine / Jane Macquitty / UK
Cono Sur 20 Barrels Limited Edition Sauvignon Blanc 2005
“The first thing that surprises about this wine is its originality. Mineral and rocky notes before fruity or herbaceous traces, with subtle but consistent citrus notes that are a very good complement; sparkling and piercing acidity, persistent and very interesting in mouth. A delicious wine.”Capital Magazine / Chile
Cono Sur 20 Barrels Limited Edition Sauvignon Blanc 2005
“Crisp, voluminous, almost saline, with plenty of fresh herbs. A tremendous wine.”Chilevinos.com / Ana maría Barahona / Chile
Cono Sur 20 Barrels Limited Edition Sauvignon Blanc 2005
“There’s plenty of grapefruit, a touch of juicy and ripe peach, grass and subtle artichoke-suggestive green notes. The nose makes quite a statement, impressive even. In mouth, it is juicy, intense, long and mineral, almost saline, a characteristic that can be traced to its almost coastal origin. Even more striking, this is the first production [...]
Cono Sur Pinot Noir 2005
“This elegant, strawberryish Chilean red from the brilliant Adolfo Hurtado is the best sub-£5 Pinot Noir in the country.”The Observer / Tim Atkin / UK
Cono Sur Visión Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc 2005
“The grapes for this wine were harvested from a single vineyard in the Casablanca valley, only eight kilometres from the pacific ocean. The cooling winds give the grapes a good level of acidity and the relatively late harvest in the region allows them to develop rich flavours. The result is in this screwcap-sealed bottle, which [...]
