"Aluvional is our search for expressing the particular identity of different sites of the Uco Valley.
What is it that makes our places so different but similar at the same time? The Andes Mountains, an inexhaustible source of richness and diversity.
When we started exploring the Uco Valley, we understood that the common denominator of its vineyards is the origin of its soils. They are alluvial soils, originated over millions of years ago by alluviums that, through the overwhelming force of the water flowing down the mountains, transported all the rocks, sediments, and minerals on which our vines grow today.
This is how we find different places at the foot of the mountain range, with an enormous diversity of landscapes, soils and climates, people, cultures, and histories.
Our challenge is to reveal that identity with transparency, and that is why we chose Malbec as a vehicle of expression." - Sebastián Zuccardi
The most multidimensional of the Aluvional range is the 2021 Aluvional Gualtallary, which opens with an initially introverted, brooding bouquet of smoldering, saturated black fruits and increasingly lifted tones of wild herbs and dried flowers. The palate is suave, rich and compact, seamlessly culminating in a swelling, dense and bracingly structured finish laden with drying but refined tannins and blazing mineral persistence. This does a commendable job of capturing Gualtallary's wild yet focused profile and does so with compelling grace and control.” 96 points, Matthew Luczy, Wine Advocate, May 25
