The Wine The Wine
Argentina
Region:Mendoza - Uco Valley
Tupungato, Mendoza has become a hotbed of viticultural excitement. It is home to some of the country's highest vineyards and takes its name from the immense volcano that provides the backdrop to this stunning region. Where there's excitement in wine in Argentina the Zuccardi family won't be far from the action. They have some prize vineyard sites planted on wonderful calcareous soils perfect for producing mineral fresh Chardonnay. A white made with Burgundy in mind where a balance of orchard fruit, mineral freshness and supple oak work together. Pair with creamy chicken or white fish dishes.
The Winemaker The Winemaker
Sebastian Zuccardi
My aim and goal as a winemaker has changed over the years as I learned more about the vineyards and soils we work in. I came to realise that we were using far too much oak and losing the natural characters held within our grapes. I now put the fruit first, the natural freshness and purity ahead of everything else. I'm very proud of the work we are doing.
"I love the notes of white fruits, especially pears and white peaches well integrated with the aromas of spices, white flowers and toast. There's a mineral and fruity roundness with excellent development in the mouth. I use oak very sparingly to preserve fruit but to add a little volume. The finish is long and lingering." - Winemaker, Sebastian Zuccardi.
