Tasting Notes

Superb depth here. Oyster shells, thyme, wild herbs, ink, graphite and lots of black cherries. A powerhouse of tannins on the full-bodied palate; vertical, colossal. Austere and puristic but super confident and chalky. Polished, too. Drink or hold.

Just short of perfection in 2020, but this is still a world class wine from the brilliant Sebastián Zuccardi, sourced from a 0.74-hectare parcel on gravel and limestone soils within the Piedra Infinita estate. Scented, ethereal and energetic, this is a detailed, complex, unwooded Malbec with blood orange and blackberry flavours and some underlying grip and backbone. The essence of the new Argentina, it’s a wine that inspires and delights.

There is a lot of subtleness, precision, elegance and harmony in the 2020 Finca Piedra Infinita Gravascal. It comes from a plot that takes well the warmer and cooler vintages like this 2020, when the wine achieved transparency, elegance and precision, which are the three characteristics they seek for in their wines. Like all of the top-of-the-range wines from their property in Paraje Altamira, this fermented with indigenous yeasts in concrete and matured exclusively in concrete and didn't see any oak to keep the poise, elegance and balance while showing the character of the vintage, place and variety. 1,400 bottles were filled in June 2021.
