From high-altitude vineyards in Uco Valley, this wine is produced by Zuccardi Valle de Uco, a family estate recognised for its focus on terroir-driven wines and precision viticulture. Concreto forms part of a range that explores the influence of soil and site, with Malbec sourced from calcareous soils that contribute both structure and a distinct mineral profile. The style moves away from richer, oak-led interpretations, instead highlighting purity and a more restrained expression of the variety.
Fermentation and ageing take place in concrete vessels, avoiding oak entirely and allowing the wine to develop texture while maintaining clarity and tension. This choice enhances the natural characteristics of the fruit and emphasises the role of vineyard origin. Positioned in the premium tier, it offers a more focused and contemporary interpretation of Malbec, combining depth with precision and a strong sense of place.
