Zuccardi Finca Piedra Infinita 2016
Descripción
Tal y como comenta Luis Gutiérrez en su review, "este vino ha alcanzado un nivel de precisión estratosférico", lo que le ha valido para hacerse un hueco en el olimpo de los 100 puntos Parker. El Valle del Uco es el lugar del que procede la Malbec con la que se elabora este tinto, y se encuentra ubicado a 1.100 metros de altitud sobre el nivel del mar. Se elabora utilizando piletas de hormigón troncocónicas durante la fermentación; una parte del vino se cría en estos mismos depósitos y otra en barrica. Muy frutal, con marcado carácter mineral.

Opinión de los críticos
I was blown away by the 2016 Finca Piedra Infinita, a wine I have been anticipating because I’ve seen the progression of the wine over the last few years. They use almost 40 different components to make this wine from small plots within the vineyard, especially the soils they call "supercalcáreo" (super limestone). The other type of soil they use is what they call "gravas calcáreas" (limestone gravels), and they don’t use any of the grapes from the deeper soils that go into the Q range. The wine has reached a stratospheric level of precision, symmetry and elegance in 2016 that is really captivating. Everything seems to be in its place; there is great harmony, the aromatics are clean and pure and the texture is like liquid chalk. There is power and elegance, energy and finesse. This is a really outstanding wine that summarizes the hard work at Zuccardi in the last few years. Bravo! 6,400 bottles were filled in February 2017.
The aromas of dark fruit with nutmeg and cloves are fascinating. Medium body, firm and silky tannins and a savory finish. A soulful wine. Subtle but complex. Drink or hold.
