Viña Cobos

Luján de Cuyo

Viña Cobos, one of Argentina’s top wineries, was established by Paul Hobbs in 1999 with the goal of setting a new standard for Argentinian wines, especially Malbec.

The team at Viña Cobos have dedicated themselves to pushing the boundaries of quality while staying true to the terroir of Mendoza’s extremely high-altitude vineyards that elevate past 3,000 feet above sea level.

The results are powerful wines with notable complexity and finesse.
