Tasting Notes: Zuccardi Q Malbec is deep purple in colour with bluish hues. Intense red fruit, herbal and floral aromas include notes of roses and violets. It starts with soft, silky notes and has great structure and acidity that provides a mineral texture. On the palate, there’s a mix of red and black fruit with hints of flowers and wild herbs. It has a long, balanced finish.
Enjoy With: Roast lamb, steak or beef dishes.
Style: Medium-bodied, fruity red wine.
Terroir/Region: This wine comes from the Uco Valley at the foot of the Andes in Mendoza, Argentina. The cold, dry climate and wide temperature range create a unique location with several terroirs and microclimates. The highest quality grapes are chosen from selected micro-regions and selected old vineyards in the Uco Valley to create Zuccardi Q Malbec.
Producer: Zuccardi wines express the essence of the soils and the extreme climate conditions of their vineyards. The growth and development of the Zuccardi range was led by Sebastián Zuccardi, third generation of the Zuccardi family, to create unique wines through the exploration of terroir in the Uco Valley.
