Some years before 1950, engineer Alberto ‘Tito' Zuccardi arrived in Mendoza from Tucumán, in northwest Argentina where his Italian grandparents had settled years before. He began experimenting with new irrigation systems because, back then as is the case today, water management is key due to its scarcity. In 1963 he planted a vineyard in the Maipú region, aiming to show other neighbouring farmers how his irrigation system worked, not realising that this would be the beginning of his life's passion.
Tasting Notes:
A full bodied bottle with loads of personality, capturing the essence of the region famed for those meaty Malbec wines. You'll find notes of dark and brooding fruits, tobacco, coffee and dark chocolate.
The Perfect Serve:
Enjoy in a large red wine glass, either on its own or with BBQ style foods, roast dinners and rich red meat.
