Profile & Story
Familia Zuccardi is a leading Mendoza estate and a pioneer of Argentina's Uco Valley. Its Polígonos range is a selection that expresses the particular characteristics of individual terroirs within the valley. This is 100% Malbec from Paraje Altamira at about 1,100 metres (3,600 feet), on well-stratified alluvial soil over big clay-covered stones; maceration runs 20 days in concrete vats (no epoxy) with indigenous yeast, and the wine is aged in concrete.
Tasting Notes
Red with violet hues; a great herbal character with fresh red-fruit aromas, lively acidity and fine, subtle tannins.
Pairing Recommendation
Pairs with grilled beef and lamb, empanadas and hard cheeses.
