Familia Zuccardi’s first family vineyard was planted by their founder, Alberto ‘Tito’ Zuccardi, in 1963. What started as an experiment to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new irrigation system he had created, led to the beginning of the family’s wine journey.
The Santa Julia vineyards, located in the heart of Mendoza, are the home of Zuccardi’s wines and specifically this range of Natural Wines. Tito’s son, Jose Alberto and his daughter, Julia, ensure that Tito’s vision continues.
Sustainability and the environment are very important to Zuccardi and these natural wines come from over 150 hectares of certified organic vineyards in Maipú. Zuccardi have ensured the vines have the least possible human intervention in their production process and comply with the philosophy of Santa Julia – caring for the environment, caring for the community and producing the highest quality wines from the land.

Light yellow, with golden flashes. It is a wine that stands out for its floral aromas. It presents aromas of tropical white fruits and orange peel. Its acidity is refreshing and daring, medium intensity, long and good acidity and freshness.
An ideal accompaniment to Salmon en croute.
