Region:Mendoza
The team at Zuccardi has taken their flagship Malbec and given it an exhilarating twist. Sure, Malbec is already bold, but one sip of this fortified gem will have you appreciating their brilliant madness. Using the Port method, fermentation is halted with a dash of grape spirit, raising the alcohol and the intrigue. After 24 months in oak, the result is simply spectacular: a luscious yet brooding wine brimming with sweet dark berries, fig, raisin, quince, toasted nuts, and a swirl of cinnamon spice.

"A purple hue stands out with some orange hues typical of maturity. It has a delicate and intense aroma of dried fruits such as almonds, chestnuts and walnuts, combined with notes of plums, figs, quince and cinnamon. The palate is remarkably sweet and silky, with broad development and a persistent finish." - Ruben Ruffo, Winemaker.
