Made from 100% Malbec grown at 1,100 metres on a tiny 0.73-hectare plot, its character is shaped by immense granite gravels coated with limestone. Fermented with native yeasts and matured entirely in concrete, it is a precise, mineral-driven Malbec of exceptional purity and place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep violet-red in colour, the 2019 Gravascal opens with dark cherry, blueberry and fragrant violet, layered with dried mountain herbs, graphite and crushed stone. The palate is concentrated yet finely drawn: vivid black and blue fruit is framed by fresh natural acidity and exceptionally refined, chalky tannins. Its striking mineral core carries through a long, savoury finish, with no overt oak to obscure the detail of the site. Powerful but composed, this is an elegant, age-worthy Malbec\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaste\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine Press Ratings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100 Points - Tim Atkin, MW (2019 Vintage)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"If you’d told me I’d be selling an Argentinian wine at this price when I started, I would have laughed at you,” says Sebastián Zuccardi, but this remarkable red is worth every peso and more. Reflecting the hard work and talent of two complementary generations of Zuccardis, Gravascal is as brilliant as it is daring. Entirely concrete-fermented and aged, it’s hauntingly complex stuff, with tangerine and dark berry fruit, thrilling minerality and precision, filigree tannins and a finish that lasts for over a minute. Truly world class, this is one of the two greatest young Argentinian wines I’ve ever tasted\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Producer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in Mendoza in 1963, Zuccardi has become one of South America's most compelling terroir-driven estates.
