"Emma is a very special wine, not only because it bears my grandmother's name on the label, but because it was the first wine I made.
The first Bonarda vines were brought to Argentina by European immigrants at the end of the 19th century; and it was for many years confused with Bonarda from Piedmont Region, until it was finally proven that it is Corbeau Noir, another European varietal original from Savoia, France. However, due to tradition and adaptation, and because of the large, cultivated area in our country, we call it Bonarda Argentina.
Back in 1990 we made one of the first Bonarda in Argentina, from vineyards planted by my grandfather in the region of Santa Rosa.
Nowadays I include this variety in each new vineyard I plant, as part of our identity.
Today, Emma Zuccardi Bonarda, is an assemblage of grapes from Paraje Altamira (1100m | 3609 ft) and San Pablo (1400 m | 4593 ft) in the Uco Valley." - Sebastián Zuccardi
The 2022 Emma Zuccardi Bonarda opens with a bouquet of dried herbs, asphalt and red fruits, introducing a slender, focused palate with a tensile, coiled core. It concludes with a delineated finish framed with a pleasant touch of rusticity and grippy, refined tannins. A lovely combination of alpine clarity and varietal character, this should drink beautifully over the coming five years. - Matthew Luczy, The Wine Advocate, May 01, 2025
