Zuccardi Concreto Malbec

The wine that marked a before and after in Sebastián Zuccardi's philosophy. Concreto was born from the question: what would a Malbec be like without any contact with wood? The answer was to ferment and age in amphorae and concrete vats, a neutral material that does not add flavors but does allow natural micro-oxygenation.
