Score: 98 pts Robert Parker | 98 pts James Suckling | 96 pts Tim Atkin – Best Malbec – Wine of the Year

Finca Piedra Infinita Malbec 2020 is the iconic wine of Zuccardi Winery, crafted from a meticulous selection of parcels within the estate of the same name, located in Paraje Altamira, in the heart of the Uco Valley, at 1,100metres above sea level.

"From stony, calcareous soils, this Malbec reflects the purest identity of the Mendoza mountain terroir. It shows deep aromas of black fruits, spices, and minerals, with an enveloping and precise texture, finely grained tannins, and a tense, long finish that clearly expresses its origin and character. A wine of remarkable elegance and outstandingageing potential."
