Zuccardi Finca Las Cuchillas Chardonnay 2021 is a single-site Chardonnay from San Pablo in the Uco Valley. Matured in concrete eggs to ensure varietal purity, this wine exhibits a pale yellow hue with green highlights. The nose reveals subdued herbaceous notes alongside subtle hints of citrus, particularly lime. On the palate, it presents an austere character, complemented by a notable chalky texture. The finish is lean and saline.

Their first single-vineyard white, the 2021 Finca Las Cuchillas was produced with Chardonnay from San Pablo in search of a more vertical wine, looking for the soils that deliver the purest expression of the cooler place. The clusters were pressed directly, and the fermentation and élevage were 100% in concrete, looking for purity and a crystalline profile. It has 13% alcohol and very good freshness and acidity; it is balanced, integrated and seamless, austere and elegant, still quite undeveloped, with shy aromas of white flowers and herbs and not really a lot of fruit or varietal character. 3,000 bottles were filled in December 2021. This is superb, with the lemony San Pablo character. It should be released around October 2023, as they feel it is still too young. - Luis Gutiérrez
