The Wine The Wine
Argentina
Region:Mendoza - Uco Valley
Located up in the most Northern reaches of the Uco Valley within Tupungato, Gualtallary is the home to some of the highest altitude vineyards in Argentina. It is up here that our winemaker Sebastian Zuccardi has worked within this unique site to create his latest addition to the Aluvional range. By focusing on the soils, Sebastian works with the land to create a wine which is expressive of this area. This results in a wine oozing with concentrated notes of blackberry, cherry and plum complemented by fresh herbs and a mineral texture. An excellent example of winemaking with terroir in mind!
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.
"Wine is people and place, or place and people. That is why I try to make our wines tell the story of where we are from, but also the story of who makes them. We make pure mountain wines from Argentina." - Sebastian Zuccardi, Winemaker.
