2020 Coen Malbec Classic Uco Valley Mendoza

Behind every great wine is a visionary, and in this case, it's none other than owner Hans Chang. Coen Winery was born from the deep bond between him and the esteemed winegrower, Fernando Vera. The name "Coen" itself is a fusion of their initials.

Coen Estates, situated in Tupungato, Mendoza, is a hidden gem nestled 3,000 feet above sea level. This idyllic location boasts the ideal climate for grape cultivation, with cold winters and hot summers, irrigated by abundant rainfall and sourced from a 1300-feet-deep underground water reservoir originating from the majestic Andes Mountains. In this pristine environment, devoid of industrial contamination, Coen Estates thrives as the perfect haven for crafting world-class wines.

At the heart of Coen's success are two magnificent certified organic vineyards: Finca Poloc, with over 30 years of history, and Finca la Victoria, around a decade old. Covering approximately 50 acres each, these vineyards are meticulously managed by the Vera family, seasoned vineyard owners with over 40 years of experience. With their dedication to organic farming, Coen ensures that every grape carries the pure essence of the Uco Valley terroir.

In the world of winemaking, one name stands out as a true luminary – Mr. Attilo Pagli. Hailing from Italy, he is not only the Chief Winemaker at Coen Estates but also a global force who elevated Argentinian Malbec to international acclaim. Mr. Attilo’s trajectory in the world of wine began over 30 years ago, when he graduated from the Oenological School of Siena in 1983 and then began working with iconic Tuscan winemaker, Giulio Gambelli.

The 2020 Coen Malbec Classic has earned its place among the stars. It was featured in Hype Magazine's prestigious article, "30 Recommended Brands to Add to Your Home Bar in 2021," by the illustrious Darren Paltrowitz.

Broadway World Awards has also recognized Coen Wines and Chief Winemaker, Attilio Pagli, stating that “Among the most admired winemakers in the world today is Attilio Pagli. He is not only the force behind Cohen Wines but also one of the masterminds who put Argentinian Malbec prominent in the eyes of the world.”

Aging: In French Oak Berrels

100% Malbec. On the nose, it has typical aromas such as fresh plum, spices and menthol. The wine fills the palate with flavor and elegance with soft tannins that accompany the long and persistent finish.

The 2020 Malbec Classic is made with grapes from Tupungato, Uco Valley by the oenologist Atilio Pagli. The region’s altitude shielded the vineyard from the worst of the warm weather resulting in a nose of fresh sweet and sour cherry with hints of herbs along with a gentle, juicy, and balanced palate. A simple, fruity wine, the finish leaves some of that fruit lingering on the tongue. ~90 Vinous Media
