Compass Room | Thursday 21 October The Iconic Winery in Argentina Bodega Zuccardi Valle de Uco has been led since 2000 by third generation family winemaker Sebastián Zuccardi whose aim is to elaborate wines with identity through the continuous exploration of terroirs in Uco Valley. They elaborate wines that express their origin, the essence of soils and the extreme climate conditions where the vineyards are planted.
Today, Zuccardi is one of Argentina’s most well-known wineries. Working in harmony with the environment, Zuccardi continues to produce premium Argentine wines. In 2007, Decanter magazine acknowledged Sebastián and his father, José Alberto Zuccardi, as being among the five most influential personalities of Argentine Wine. And recently in 2016, José Alberto himself received Lifetime Achievement Award by International Wine Challenge (IWC). Zuccardi has recently awarded as “Year’s Best Mendoza Malbecs” producer. With a family of viticulturists, they have been innovating in winemaking and producing high quality Malbecs from their high altitude chalky vineyards which are over 1000m above sea level in the Andes Mountains. Over the years, they have set a high bar for Argentine Malbecs and earned high acclaims globally.
