Zuccardi Valle de Uco Fosil Chardonnay 2020 Review
The Uco Valley in Argentina is a high desert with terrible soil, which is great for wine! Sebastian Zuccardi is a wizard with wine and he is a true steward of the land under vine for his family's winery. This is their Fosil Chardonnay that is unoaked and steely awesome. The wine is sharp on the nose with wafts of chalky earth. The fruit is minimal but that is just fine. Because this wine has the right amount of depth to handle its sharp angles. This wine with empanadas might just floor you.
