✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the high-altitude heights of Tupungato in Mendoza's famed Uco Valley, the Zuccardi Apelación Chardonnay is a masterclass in mountain viticulture. Sebastián Zuccardi's vision for this wine is to strip away the heavy, buttery oak influences of old-school New World Chardonnay, focusing instead on the pure, electric energy of the Andes. Grown at elevations exceeding 1,100 meters, the grapes experience extreme diurnal temperature shifts, preserving a piercing natural acidity. Fermented and aged primarily in concrete vessels, this wine pays homage to the stony, calcareous soils of the region. The result is a beautifully textured white that balances fresh citrus and white stone fruit with a distinct, chalky minerality that reflects the rugged beauty of the Tupungato landscape.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Familia Zuccardi blev grundlagt i Mendoza i 1963 af Alberto Zuccardi og har siden udviklet sig til et af Argentinas mest visionære og prestigefyldte familiedrevne vindynastier. Under ledelse af José Alberto Zuccardi og tredjegenerations-vinmageren Sebastián Zuccardi har vinhuset rettet sit primære fokus mod højtbeliggende vindyrkning i Uco Valley. Her har de været pionerer inden for dybdegående geologiske jordbundsanalyser og gæring på neutrale betontanke for at fremhæve vinenes autentiske terroiroprindelse. Fra topmoderne vinerier som det anmelderroste Piedra Infinita i Paraje Altamira skaber Zuccardi skelsættende, mineralske Malbec-vine – heriblandt Finca Piedra Infinita – samt enestående fortolkninger af Bonarda og Cabernet Sauvignon fordelt over både rød-, hvid-, mousserende og hedvin.
