Zuccardi Finca Los Membrillos 2019
- 750 ml bottle
Product details
The one single-vineyard wine that is very different from the others is the 2019 Finca Los Membrillos, as it comes from a vineyard planted with Cabernet Sauvignon in Altamira two kilometers from the Piedra Infinita property planted 25 years ago. It keeps the herbal, spicy and peppery varietal character and the fine-grained tannins from the property and the chalkiness from the soils. It has 14% alcohol and good freshness, acidity and balance. This comes from four different soils and was co-fermented with some 10% Malbec from the same property, as they feel like that amount of Malbec gives it some lubrication/juiciness. This matured in used 500-liter French oak barrels (the last year they bought barrels was 2013). Drink date: 2022-2030. Score - 96. (Luis Gutiérrez, robertparker.com, Nov. 30, 2022)
