- Intense aromas of black plums, wild herbs, and a touch of guava combined with graphite lead to a firm finish.Opulent, with a very perfumed nose of fresh cassis, raspberry, lemongrass, and eucalyptus. The well-structured and creamy palate has an attractive, delicate freshness. The red cherry flavours flow through to a smooth and elegant finish.
The grapes were cold-macerated at a temperature of 7°C for 48 hours and then fermented for seven days in stainless steel tanks between 22 and 28°C. Skin contact vinification lasted 15 days, with daily pump-overs extracting the desired level of tannins, colour and flavour. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was macerated for six days, then racked and settled for 48 hours before being transferred to 225-litre seasoned French oak barrels for 14 months of maturation.

Winery | Widely known as Malbec, Cot is a synonym from southwestern France. The Maipo Alto produces very fresh and expressive wines. The Liguai Estate is located in the Maipo Andes subregion and is nestled against the mountain foothills at 440 and 520 meters. Trained on Double Guyot systems, the vines are drip irrigated and grown in rocky soils of alluvial and colluvial origin. The cooling influences of the mountain air, along with the Pacific Ocean breezes, ensure a long ripening season, resulting in concentrated flavours in the berries combined with balancing acidity. Harvested by hand, the grapes are picked when they have reached the perfect maturity. |
