Zuccardi Q Tempranillo originates from Argentina, specifically within the Mendoza region. The Zuccardi family legacy began in 1963 when Alberto Zuccardi planted the first vines in Maipú; today, the third generation, led by agronomist Sebastián Zuccardi, continues to pioneer high-quality viticulture. The 'Q' in the name stands for 'Quality', indicating that the grapes are sourced from carefully selected parcels of old vines. The winery follows a philosophy where 'place is more important than the winemaking process', utilizing research and development to deeply understand the diverse soils and climates of their vineyard sites.
Wine Description
This red wine displays an intense ruby red colour. The sensory profile is rich and layered, featuring an aromatic nose of ripe fruits such as figs, cherries, and plums, which are well-integrated with spicy notes derived from oak ageing. On the palate, the wine is superbly structured with a soft entry, offering firm tannins and a balanced acidity alongside flavours of red berries, tobacco leaf, and hints of chocolate. It has a good volume and a persistent, long finish.
Varietal Composition: 100% Tempranillo.
ABV: Typically between 13.5% and 14.5%.
Organic Status: While the winery emphasizes sustainability and natural development of the vines, this specific wine is generally classified as sustainably produced rather than certified organic.
Stylistic Notes: The grapes are sourced from old vines in Santa Rosa at an altitude of approximately 620 metres. The wine is matured for one year in a combination of French and American medium-toasted oak barrels.
