Familia Zuccardi

Familia Zuccardi, also known as Zuccardi Valle de Uco, is a family-owned winery in Argentina. It was founded in 1963 by Alberto Zuccardi, an engineer who planted his first vineyard in Maipú, Mendoza, to demonstrate a new irrigation system he had developed. Over the years, the winery has evolved under the stewardship of the Zuccardi family, now managed by the third generation, with Sebastián Zuccardi leading the way.

Familia Zuccardi produces a diverse range of wines, including Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and various white varietals. Their portfolio includes iconic wines such as the Zuccardi Q series, Zuccardi Tito, and the Zuccardi Finca series, highlighting specific vineyard sites and micro-terroirs. The winery is committed to minimal intervention in the winemaking process, often utilising natural fermentation techniques to showcase the fruit's purity and the terroir's character.

At the heart of Familia Zuccardi's philosophy is a focus on research and development, constantly exploring new techniques and grape varieties to enhance the quality and uniqueness of their wines. Their terroir-driven approach aims to express the unique characteristics of the Uco Valley's diverse soils and climates.
