The Zuccardi Q line - its name comes from Quality - is made with grapes from areas and vineyards selected for each variety. Cut from selected vineyards, from the best areas of Mendoza. Each batch is harvested separately and at different times, in order to achieve elegance and balance in the final wine.
"A blend of 70% Altamira vineyards and the rest from Los Chacayes, this is a pure fruit juice, clear in its expression of the variety, in the notes of flowers and herbs. The palate is tense, with a lot of texture , with fine and sharp tannins. 30% of the wine is aged in barrels and the rest in concrete, which seems to strengthen the fruit, the exuberance of the flavors, the intensity and the acidity. A Malbec that is like a photograph of the variety in modern times, already very far from over-ripeness and excesses of wood." Patricio Tapia - Descorchados Guide
