(10/2019) "Georges Vigouroux, who died in February 2019, was instrumental in reviving Cahors, restoring estates such as this one, which he relaunched in 1987. This cuvee, a selection of parcels from the high-density vineyards he planted around the chateau, captures Vigouroux's style in its sleek elegance. It's sweetly ripe yet not at all heavy, with a sour-cherry brightness to the fruit, while the oak acts like a scaffolding, supportive but not smothering. It would be delicious now with duck roasted with cherries."

Vinous, Stephen Tanzer
(7/2017) "(14.5% alcohol; from very old vines on stony soil close to the river; 50% done in tank): Bright red-ruby. Blackberry and violet scents are accented by stony minerality. A sweet, pliant fruit bomb on the palate; surprisingly fleshy and broad but with lovely inner-mouth floral lift. An element of smoky minerality contributes complexity to the berry and plum fruit. Finishes with seamless tannins and excellent length. Quite substantial for this entry-level wine."

Zuccardi "Q" Uco Valley Malbec 2017
92
Wine Advocate
(6/29/2018) "The 2017 Q Malbec wants to showcase the variety in the Valle de Uco using grapes from Altamira and Chacayes. It fermented in concrete vats with indigenous yeasts and with some full clusters that were broken, and it matured in concrete and used French barriques. This differs from the Serie A in the vineyards; here, they look for more texture and less fruit, aiming for sharper and more austere, in the direction of Concreto. It's impressive how the wines from Zuccardi have improved in the last few years and how a wine at this price can have such precision and purity. No excess in any direction."

Wine Advocate
(10/31/2019) "The unoaked 2018 Malbec Clasico 2018 comes from a very good year, after 2013 and 2014, which were very difficult years, and 2015 and 2016 that saw lots of rain. According to winemaker Leo Erazo, it's the most complex wine to make because of the many different sources of grapes, growers and the volume they make. But they planted 22 hectares in 2012, so they use more of their own grapes; the wine now has some 30% of grapes from Valle de Uco, which is always a cooler region that is noticed in the wine, which is very balanced, harmonious and easy to drink. It has a dusty note and fine tannins; it's elegant and especially very drinkable."
