| Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Serie A wines represent the best varietals from the best terroirs across Argentina. The Serie A Malbec is a blend of wines from three different sites, each providing an essential component that makes the wine more complete and complex.\r\nA creamy, fruity red that is vivid and energetic, yet delicate at the same time. Medium body, fresh acidity and a flavorful finish. Super clean and fun. All about fruit and drinkability.\r\nRobert Parker 90 Points\r\nAbout Zuccardi Family Winery\r\nWe are a family company founded in 1963 by Engineer Alberto Zuccardi. In those times, he began planting vines in Maip\u00fa (province of Mendoza), experimenting with an irrigation system of his own creation based on a method used in California.\u00a0 Forty five years after the starting point of this path, there are three generations joined by a passion for wine. In September 2007, the prestigious magazine Decanter acknowledged Jos\u00e9 Alberto and Sebasti\u00e1n Zuccardi as being among the five most influential personalities of Argentine Wine.\r\nIn 2005, Sebastian Zuccardi, third generation of the family, lead the development of the new stage of the wines of the winery expansion into the Uco Valley. On his initiative, since 2008 the winery has an area of Research and Development dedicated to the study of the terroir and the different variables that affect wine production. In 2013 the construction of the new Zuccardi winery in the Uco Valley began. It opened in March 2016 with the premise of producing wines with identity, through the continuous exploration of the different terroirs of the Uco Valley.\r\nThe Zuccardi family\u2019s approach to sustainability starts with the environment and people before any product. They\u2019re dedicated to producing the highest quality wines through sustainable practices such as a focus on nurturing biodiversity, organic farming, efficient irrigation practices, composting, water treatment, comprehensive waste and recycling efforts, and the use of solar energy. The winery itself is designed to be naturally energy efficient by maximizing natural light and minimizing electricity consumption. Its concrete walls fulfill the function of a thermal insulator, the movements of liquid are caused by gravity and the concrete-designed vessels allow for a natural control of the temperature of the wine.\u00a0As a third generation family-owned winery, the Zuccardi\u2019s take seriously their responsibility to protect the environment, support the land, the farmers and uplift the local community. Through building schools, offering free education, fostering equality, banning child labor, and subsidizing health care, they\u2019re not only elevating their wines and the Uco Valley as a world class wine region, but also giving the people who have contributed to their success a path forward and upward mobility for their own families. |
