The Zuccardi family were the first to plant organically in Argentina’s Mendoza wine region. They have farmed sustainably for three generations and constantly strive for ways to reduce packaging costs, energy consumption and water usage. They even have their own wormery which composts the grape skins and stems for organic fertiliser. Their passion for the land is repaid with grapes of the most intense flavour and quality.
Bursting with intense black fruits, balanced by a rounded mouthfeel. The finish is long, with hints of blueberry and spice.
There are no rules but it is ideal with a rich mushroom risotto or freshly baked empanadas.

These two different grape varieties are often confused. Malbec is richer with damson and blueberry fruit whereas Merlot is often lighter with plum and cherry flavours.
Yes, this a dry red wine that’s a perfect partner for meat or Mediterranean food.
