The UK’s only retail and commercial drinks specialist. We’ve been selling wholesale winesfor over 40 years. As a country-wide business, we know your customers and what they drink better than anyone else. Natalie MacLean writes about wine with a sensuous obsession... and often laugh-out-loud funny... Terrific. Cono Sur is currently working with a Chilean university to conduct a detailed study on its vineyard biodiversity, and which flora and fauna are present. “It’s for our own internal use to help us better understand our estate and to better care for our vineyards,” said Feres.There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.

When we talk about New World wines we refer to those from the United States, Chile, Argentina, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. A common denominator in all of them is that the vines are located in bioclimatic regions suitable for the cultivation of certain strains, such as the Pinot Noir grape, which is among the 12 most planted varieties in Chile, according to the Cadastre National Viticulture of 2017. The Bicicleta wine was born in 2012 as a tribute to the estate workers, who travel daily through the vineyards in their bikes, as part of the eco-friendly and sustainability policies implemented by Cono Sur since its foundation in 1993. Certified Carbon Neutral® delivery - We neutralize the CO2 emissions generated from transportation.Now, what is the secret to the success of this wine? The way to cultivate the vines is part of it: the vines that give life to this Pinot Noir – besides being sustainable – enjoy abundant sunlight, hot days, cold nights and irrigation water from the snowmelt. At Cono Sur, we choose to make wine the eco-friendly way. Part of this means planting wildflowers in natural corridors between our vines. These corridors encourage biodiversity which is essential for enriching our soils. Hints of spice and toasted nuts make this an ideal wine to partner spicy Asian cuisine, shellfish, sushi and salads.
