Zuccardi is one of the finest and most famous wineries in Argentina. Established in the high altitude region of Mendoza by Alberto Zuccardi in 1963, the winery is still family run today. They were just voted 'Worlds Best Vineyard' by an international academy of 500 wine aficionados and sommeliers. Zuccardi were one of the first to start seriously exporting in the early 1990s, and led the way in pricing. Over time and with much experimentation row by row, they have progressed further into single finca wines primarily from the Uco Valle. These have a real focus on the terroir, with less new oak, and early harvesting for more freshness. We are joined by their export Manager Juan Pablo Yáñez, here in New Zealand for the first time to showcase this stunning range.
