About
Zuccardi is one of Argentina’s most highly regarded family-owned wineries, known for its focus on site expression and innovation in the Uco Valley. The Aluvional range represents single-parcel wines that highlight the unique identity of specific vineyard locations.
Winemaking: Grapes are hand-harvested from high-altitude vineyard parcels and carefully sorted before fermentation in concrete vats using native yeasts. The wine is then aged in a combination of concrete and oak to preserve purity while adding subtle structure and complexity.
Vineyards: Sourced from Paraje Altamira in the Uco Valley at high altitude, where alluvial soils rich in stones and calcium deposits, combined with cool nights and sunny days, produce wines with exceptional freshness, tension and mineral precision.
