Sebastián Zuccardi grew up in a family that had a strong visionary and innovative spirit. Since 1963, when his grandfather planted the first hectares of grapevines in Maipú, Mendoza, the Zuccardi family has not stopped growing and developing. It has become a leader in Argentine wine production.

From his father, José Alberto Zuccardi, Sebastián inherited the determination and desire to constantly strive for excellence.

The launch of Zuccardi Q, in 1999, was a great wish for my father, who continued working the vineyard that my grandfather started, back in 1963.

Zuccardi Q is special for the family, as it was the first wine to bear our name on the label. The simple letter "Q" indicates vineyards and parcels that have been carefully selected.

When we started the project, the best parcels of each vineyard were marked with a "Q" (for Quality, in English), so that everyone who worked on these new wines would notice that this particular selection required special attention, in order to achieve grapes of exceptional quality.

In addition, farm workers with better skills were summoned for this project.

Zuccardi Q is a "Wine of Region." It is an assemblage of grapes from selected vineyards, from the best regions of Mendoza. Each plot is harvested separately and at different times, in order to achieve the best varietal expression in each place.

Tasting notes:
Ruby red color. Fresh fruit aromas of cherry, cassis, and violet notes. Lush acidity, firm tannins and a long finish. It can be consumed now but will age beautifully for several years.

Vinification: Filling of pools by gravity. Vinification with native yeasts and maceration on the pomace for 20 days. Complete malolactic fermentation. Aged in 2500 liter vats and bottled without filtering.

Harvest: Very particular vintage, characterized by limited yields and by the high speed of maturity, which made it one of the fastest and most challenging that we remember. Grapes from all areas and varieties arrived at the winery with unbeatable health and high quality. The wines generally show excellent aromatic complexity and a lot of juiciness, texture and structure in the mouth.
