Familia Zuccardi - Concreto 2022 (Pre-arrival) (750ml)

94 Points Vinous  

 “The 2022 Malbec Concreto comes from the Uco Valley and was fermented in whole bunches before spending a winter in concrete vats. A rich purple in the glass. The fruit-forward, primary nose delivers enticing notes of violet and plum along with blueberry, cherry and sage. Dry and muscular on the palate, the chalky, restrained tannins and juicy flow produce a compact, vibrant mouthfeel. This is a textured, intentionally no-nonsense red.”

94 Points Wine Advocate  

 “Sourced from Altamira and Gualtallary, the 2022 Concreto Malbec opens with a fragrant, dark-fruited, balsamic and floral nose followed by an elegantly rich, precise and tensile palate. It culminates in a long, chalky and refined finish that deftly balances crystalline mineral notes, fine-grained tannins and weightless power. This is a beautiful iteration of a cuvée that routinely offers a definitive example of contemporary Uco Valley Malbec for a competitive price point.”
