TASTING NOTE: It's from a selection of limestone-rich vineyards that surround Zuccardi's Piedra Infinita winery in Altamira. Aged in concrete and 100% whole-cluster fermented to support the flavors, the texture is firm, but it's also smooth and friendly. Floral and herbal aromas are everywhere, while the acidity continues leading it down a road of freshness and tension. In the little fiefdom that Zuccardi has in Altamira, this is one of the best examples of potential. Score - 95 (Patricio Tapia, guiadescorchados.cl, 2019) Price $ 39.95
Bottle Size 750 mL
Tasting Date vintages release - December 7, 2019
Cases bought 199 (6 bottles per case)
