Silky fruit-filled Alambrado is from Familia Zuccardi, one of the finest cellars in all Argentina. Three times it has been awarded Argentina's 'Top Value Brand' by IWC and head of the family, José Zuccardi, was given a lifetime achievement award by the same competition in 2016.
As well as having state-of-the-art facilities in both Maipó and Ucó, the family are committed to employing the many local families who have served the company from the beginning. He says, "We believe in using people rather than machines whenever possible.” This smooth, fruity red is made purely from Argentina’s flagship grape, Malbec. It’s tasty on its own and very versatile with food: from grilled meats, veggie kebabs, a squash bake or simple sausage and mash.
Trapiche selects three top growers each vintage and honours them with a special bottling. Robert Parker says “these wines are among the finest values in high class Malbec”. The apogee of fine Malbec, Coletto has riveting intensity and finesse.
