Finca La Consulta | Familia Zuccardi

Located in the district of San Carlos, La Consulta estate has 37 hectares mainly growing Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. The traditional furrow and ditch irrigation system is implemented in this estate, a system that was developed by the first vine growers in the region.

Familia Zuccardi, always taking care of every detail, has chosen the best areas to cultivate each variety and the conduction system is chosen according to the regional and varietal characteristics. For La Consulta estate, the conduction system is vertical. All cultural works on the plant from pruning to harvesting are intended to producing the best grapes.

Finca Vista Flores | Familia Zuccardi

Located in the district of Tunuyan, Vista Flores estate has 55 hectares mainly growing Malbec, Chardonnay, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. Parts of the vineyards use the vertical conduction system and the Parral Zuccardi conduction system is also used.

The later system elevates the vineyards so as to create an arched green web which allows the process of photosynthesis to develop in the perfect conditions. Moreover, it protects the grapes from the hours of highest sun radiation having the right density of leaves and cluster distribution, and it also facilitates protection against frosts.

Finca Altamira | Familia Zuccardi

Altamira estate is located in the district of San Carlos; it has a drip irrigation system thus allowing water care and irrigation control even more efficient.
It has 90 hectares mainly growing Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Caladoc, Ancellotta and Tempranillo.

The conduction system chosen for this estate is vertical: increasing the density of plants per hectare and thus having the plants compete among themselves which gives a lower production. All care works, from pruning to harvesting, are manually done, going over every plant, every sprout, every cluster so as to obtain the highest fruit quality and a comprehensive control of the plants.

Finca Santa Rosa | Familia Zuccardi

Prioritizing care for grapes, Familia Zuccardi has chosen the best areas for every grape variety. Located in the district of Santa Rosa, to the southeast of the capital city of Mendoza, this estate has 475 hectares of vineyard which have enabled due to the soil conditions the design of a conduction system known as Parral Zuccardi, which allows grapes to be protected from the hours of highest solar radiation with the right leaf density and cluster distribution.

This system also facilitates protection against late frosts.
The main characteristic of this estate is its location: on a desert area with wide temperature range.

Finca Maipú | Familia Zuccardi
Maipú

Located 40 km southeast of the capital city of Mendoza and lying at an average elevation of 650 meters above sea level, Maipu estate has 180 hectares of vineyard. Here, the conduction systems known as parral (high trellis) which was introduced in Argentina by Italian immigrants towards the end of the XIX century and later adjusted by Engineer Alberto Zuccardi is used.

The Parral Zuccardi elevates the vineyards so as to create an arched green web which allows the process of photosynthesis to develop in the perfect conditions.
The grapes also benefit from high levels of ventilation since they are suspended and free of foliage. This warranties healthiness and the right amount of light.
