Zuccardi Polígonos Paraje Altamira Malbec is a remarkable red wine from the Argentinian winery Zuccardi. This wine is a beautiful expression of the unique terroir of Paraje Altamira, a sub-region of the Uco Valley in Mendoza, Argentina, known for its high-altitude vineyards and limestone soils. The altitude and climate of this region provide grapes with an intense taste and aroma.
The Malbec grapes for this wine are harvested by hand at the optimal moment of ripeness. After harvest, they are gently pressed and fermented at low temperatures in small concrete tanks. The wine then matures for 12 months in French oak barrels, resulting in a complex and tasty wine with soft tannins.
The Zuccardi Poligonos Paraje Altamira Malbec has a deep purple color with garnet nuances. On the nose the wine is complex and fragrant, with aromas of black fruit, plums, cherries, violets, leather, spices and mineral notes. The taste is powerful and elegant, with ripe fruit, fresh acidity, structured tannins and a long, complex aftertaste.
This Malbec is an impressive wine that goes well with grilled red meat, stews, game dishes and hard cheeses. It is also wonderful to enjoy as a standalone wine, showcasing its rich and concentrated flavors.
Zuccardi Poligonos Paraje Altamira Malbec is a delicious red Argentinian wine from the Valle de Uco region of Argentina. This wine is made by Zuccardi winery from Malbec grapes.
