Malbec and Argentina seem made for each other. No other country makes wine from this grape in such a seductive style, and few cellars excel so consistently as Familia Zuccardi of Santa Julia. Enjoy this elegant, silky Malbec from this great estate.

Familia Zuccardi ranks among the country’s most respected wine producers, winning 'Top Value Brand of the Year' three times from Wines and Spirits and last year a Lifetime Achievement award. It dates back to the 1950s, when Alberto Zuccardi started an irrigation company in Mendoza. In 1963 he planted a vineyard to show how his watering system could benefit grape quality, thereby writing himself into history. Alberto’s son José now manages the business with grandsons Sebastián and Miguel, while Rubén Ruffo, the estate’s internationally experienced winemaker, ensures every wine made under the Zuccardi name is outstanding in its class. The 2016 Santa Julia Malbec is a smooth, easy going and fruity red made for everyday enjoyment right now.
