Descripcion

Cobos Marchiori seduce con su extraordinaria riqueza aromática, es un vino intenso y elegante, en el que se destaca su gran frescura. Muestra un color rojo intenso con tonos violáceos. Encontramos fruta roja, cassis, ciruela, especias, tabaco rubio, coco, pimienta blanca, chocolate y notas sutiles a cardamomo. La riqueza en nariz se repite en boca de una manera exquisita. Es largo y dulce, con taninos suaves. Un vino carnoso y complejo, con un prolongado final en boca. VIÑEDO Marchiori Estate, 995 m.s.n.m. Este viñedo sigue un sistema de poda a cordón pitoneado bilateral y riego tradicional por surcos con pendiente. Este vino proviene de vides de más de 80 años. SUELO Los suelos se caracterizan por ser de origen aluvional. Suelos profundos, siendo la textura predominante franco arcillosa, haciéndose presente el limo en ocasiones y también la arena, lo que favorece notablemente el drenaje. CICLO VEGETATIVO Desde el comienzo de la temporada se presentaron condiciones climatológicas complejas. La primavera registró una temperatura promedio por debajo del histórico, y las heladas tardías produjeron un raleo natural. También hubo algunas anomalías climáticas como la ola de calor durante el mes de Enero y las lluvias en Febrero. Se realizó un manejo minucioso del viñedo. Esto contribuyó a que las uvas alcanzaran una maduración homogénea en términos enológicos, y la vendimia se llevó a cabo con pequeños retrasos. El rendimiento de cosecha es de 4,5 t/ha CRIANZA Y PUESTA EN BOTELLA Criado durante 18 meses en barricas de roble francés nuevo Taransaud (100%). Puesto en botella en Diciembre 2016. Sin clarificar ni filtrar. NOTAS DE DEGUSTACIÓN Rojo intenso con tonos violetas, destacan en nariz notas de tabaco, frutas negras, rojas, higo, membrillo, pimienta blanca y clavo de olor. En boca es largo, suave pero complejo y elegante, de taninos sedosos y un largo e intenso.
