Highlights

  • Argentina Sostenible
Our family has been at the forefront of winemaking in Argentina for three generations. We were drawn to the unique soils of the Uco Valley, where millions of years ago ancient glaciers melted and formed ranging rivers, known as 'brazos', arms, that flowed down the Andes Mountains. These rivers have created diverse soils and a rich landscape where native flowers, insects, and animals flourish. A perfect environment for cultivating the best grapes in Argentina.

Regional Information

Located at the foot of the Andes, the Uco Valley runs north to south on the western edge of Argentina's Mendoza region. 70km long and 40km wide, its rich alluvial soils form a cultivated oasis with altitudes in excess of 1000m above sea level. Zuccardi's vineyards benefit from a cold dry climate and a wide temperature range of almost 20ºC between day and night. The combination of diverse multiple microclimates, altitudes and soil types has resulted in many unique terroirs across the individual vineyards.

Vinification Details

Classic red winemaking. Cold pre-fermentation maceration for 5 days. Fermentation with selected yeasts at a temperature between 25 and 27 °C and maceration for 15 days on the pomace with periodic pump-overs, délestages and/or pigéage. Malolactic fermentation in tank. 20% of the wine is aged for eight months in French oak barrels.

History

Some years before 1950, engineer Alberto ‘Tito' Zuccardi arrived in Mendoza from Tucumán, in northwest Argentina where his Italian grandparents had settled years before. He began experimenting with new irrigation systems because, back then as is the case today, water management is key due to its scarcity. In 1963 he planted a vineyard in the Maipú region, aiming to show other neighbouring farmers how his irrigation system worked, not realising that this would be the beginning of his life's passion.
