Felino Chardonnay 2019 Mendoza

Chardonnay 100%

Produced with grapes grown in vineyards in Valle de Uco and Luján de Cuyo in Mendoza. At 1,000 meters above sea levels, the vines age growing in almost desert like conditions.

Grapes are pressed as whole bunches and fermented with wild yeasts. Malolactic fermentation takes place in oak barrels. The bulk of the wine is aged in stainless steel tanks, but 10% has 4 months in used oak barrels.

Paul Hobbs first visited Mendoza in 1989. He fell in love with the place, and decided to stay. He worked in wineries, experimenting with chardonnay fermented with wild yeasts and malbec. His first small batch of malbec received great critical acclaim and was part of the wave that established Argentine malbec in the wine world.

He established Viña Cobos in 1999. He established vineyards in some of the best locations in Valle de Uco and Luján de Cuyo and aims to produce wines that truly reflect the terroir of their origin.
