Winemaker Notes

Red color with violet hues. It expresses a great herbal character with notes of red fruits. In the mouth is long and with a distinctive mineral texture. A wine of great structure and acidity.

Professional Ratings

94 Robert Parker\’s Wine Advocate

As ever, the 2023 Concreto Malbec represents the Zuccardi style and philosophy as efficiently as possible at an aggressively reasonable price point. A blend of fruit from calcareous soils in Altamira and Gualtallary, it leads with a simmering, contained bouquet of black and blue fruits, purple flowers and desert herbs, followed by a dense, oily and tensile palate. It concludes with an intense, inky yet elegant finish lifted by focused minerality and streaks of salinity.

93 Wine Spectator
An elegant, vibrant and youthful package built around violet, pineapple, guava and fresh berry aromas that join the palate. Cherry, orange and slate details swell around the fresh acidity and drive the finish, with cocoa bean and orange peel details and caressing tannins. Drink now through 2036.
93 Vinous
The 2023 Malbec Concreto is sourced from Paraje Altamira and Gualtallary. True to its namethis purple-hued wine is bottled right after a winter in concrete vats, with no oak aging. It reveals aromas of violet and blueberry, with a touch of cherry in its deeper layers. The palate is compact and juicy, with underlying tension and a lingering chalky texture. Born in a warm vintage, the 2023 is rich yet balanced, offering a well-calibrated sip that highlights the fruit.
