More information on wine critics and ratings

The Familia Zuccardi Serie A Malbec is a stunning representation of the Malbec grape, a varietal that has become synonymous with Argentina's wine identity. Sourced from the high-altitude vineyards in the Uco Valley and Santa Rosa, this wine is a beautiful expression of the region's terroir. The altitude imparts a distinct character to the grapes, giving the wine its remarkable complexity and depth.

In the glass, the wine presents a deep, inviting purple color, setting the stage for an indulgent experience. The nose is a captivating blend of ripe black fruits, like blackberries and plums, beautifully complemented by hints of violets and subtle touches of spice and vanilla. This aromatic complexity is a nod to the careful aging in French oak, which adds layers of flavor without overpowering the fruit.

On the palate, the Familia Zuccardi Serie A Malbec offers a rich, full-bodied experience. It balances its robust structure with smooth tannins and a refreshing acidity, creating a harmonious and enjoyable drinking experience. The flavors of dark fruit are enriched with nuances of chocolate and a whisper of tobacco, leading to a long, satisfying finish.

This Malbec is not just a beverage; it's a celebration of the Zuccardi family's commitment to quality and innovation in winemaking. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, robust pasta dishes, and mature cheeses, making it a versatile choice for a variety of culinary occasions.

Whether you're hosting a dinner party or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home, the Familia Zuccardi Serie A Malbec is an excellent choice for anyone seeking to explore the best of Argentina's beloved Malbecs. Its combination of rich flavors, deep heritage, and modern winemaking techniques make it a standout choice for both connoisseurs and casual wine drinkers alike.

James Suckling (JS) : 92 Points (2021)
Fresh black cherries and blueberries with some violets and dried herbs. A medium-to full-bodied malbec that is all about primary fruit and some raw spice. Not a flattering wine, but rather pure and nervy with fresh, linear acidity and calculated tannins.

Decanter (DCT) : 91 Points (2020)
Perfumed and inviting with a nose of herb, black pepper and violet petal, palate of vibrant acidity, plum and textural tannins.

Robert Parker (RP) : 90 Points (2020)
They look for fresh fruit with good light for the 2020 Malbec Serie A, something very important in warmer years like this 2020. As I saw in the Bonarda from this year, there is less perfect ripeness and the wine shows a little more rusticity within the gentle profile of the grape. This is their entry-level Malbec, excellent for the price. Rating: 90+

Tim Atkin (TA) : 90 Points (2017)
Seven different Uco Valley sub-regions are used to produce the Zuccardis’ impressively reliable Malbec, from Gualtallary to La Consulta. Dense and deeply coloured, this unoaked style is layered and intense, with black cherry and damson fruit and chalky freshness. 2018-23. Alcohol: 13.5%

The front label of the Zuccardi Q range illustrates the stone walls of Zuccardi’s winery, rising from the soil and symbolising how the Andes mountains emerged millions of years ago.
Like the winery, Q Tempranillo is a wine of great structure, with notes of tobacco, leather and chocolate.
