Zuccardi Emma Zuccardi Bonarda 2014

Mendoza, ArgentinaEasily the best Emma I have tasted. The wine is a tribute to visionary winemaker Sebastien Zuccardi’s grandmother. The Uco Valley red is unoaked and so relies upon its savoury fruit to entice. I love the floral notes and the red raspberry/strawberry fruit that buoy its soft, slippery textures and tannins. Fresh and elegant, it’s more pinot noir than bonarda. Not cheap but well worth investigating.Tasted: 24 May 2017Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
