Zuccardi Polígonos Tupungato Sauvignon Blanc

Zuccardi’s Polígonos Sauvignon Blanc comes from Tupungato, a single high-altitude plot at the northern end of the Uco Valley and is made in the same hands-off style as the rest of the series: concrete, wild yeast, no new oak.

It’s a Sauvignon Blanc of the cooler, more restrained kind: grapefruit, lime zest, fresh-cut herbs and a flinty, stony edge, with racy acidity and a dry, saline finish. Think Loire rather than Marlborough.

Serve well chilled with goat’s cheese, asparagus, green salads, or grilled white fish.
