The Zuccardi Serie A range demonstrates the richness and diversity of Argentina’s many microclimates and soils. Serie A stands for “Argentina Series” as the way of expressing our most representative grape varieties by recognizing the best growing regions specific to each, and selecting top vineyard sites along the foothills of the Andes Mountains.
VINIFICATION
Handpicked grapes in plastic boxes during the first and second week of April. The grapes were destemmed and crushed. They underwent cold maceration for 5-7 days before classic vinification with native yeasts and fermented at 77°F (25-27°C). Then macerated for 20 days with periodic remontage and delestage. Part of the wine was aged in French oak barrels.
