| Description: | 92 Wa / 91 Vp. Vinepair Best Cabernets under $25 of 2021. The 2017 Q Malbec wants to showcase the variety in the Valle de Uco using grapes from Altamira and Chacayes. It fermented in concrete vats with indigenous yeasts and with some full clusters that were broken, and it matured in concrete and used French barriques. This differs from the Serie A in the vineyards; here, they look for more texture and less fruit, aiming for sharper and more austere, in the direction of Concreto. It's impressive how the wines from Zuccardi have improved in the last few years and how a wine at this price can have such precision and purity. No excess in any direction. Superb. 380,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in April 2018. Luis Gutierrez – The Wine Advocate. This wine is a great representation of this grape's inherent characteristics. It has the depth you love from Cab, but also that peppery note that can often be lost with too much oak. The alcohol is just right, making this an excellent weeknight steak wine. - Vinepair |
