✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The 'Q' in Zuccardi Q stands for 'Quality', a designation originally used to mark the finest barrels of the harvest. Launched in the late 1990s, this range represents the family's pioneering steps toward identifying the best micro-terroirs of Mendoza. This Chardonnay is sourced from high-altitude vineyards in the Uco Valley, specifically Gualtallary and El Peral, where the combination of alluvial soils, intense mountain sunlight, and cool nights yields grapes with exceptional concentration and natural acidity. Fermented with native yeasts in concrete vessels and French oak barrels, the wine undergoes aging on its fine lees, resulting in a beautifully structured white that balances vibrant citrus and stone fruit flavors with a distinct mineral backbone and a creamy, elegant texture.
🍾 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.
