Tasting note
I was blown away by the 2016 Finca Piedra Infinita, a wine I have been anticipating because I’ve seen the progression of the wine over the last few years. They use almost 40 different components to make this wine from small plots within the vineyard, especially the soils they call "supercalcáreo" (super limestone). The other type of soil they use is what they call "gravas calcáreas" (limestone gravels), and they don’t use any of the grapes from the deeper soils that go into the Q range. The wine has reached a stratospheric level of precision, symmetry and elegance in 2016 that is really captivating. Everything seems to be in its place; there is great harmony, the aromatics are clean and pure and the texture is like liquid chalk. There is power and elegance, energy and finesse. This is a really outstanding wine that summarizes the hard work at Zuccardi in the last few years. Bravo! 6,400 bottles were filled in February 2017.

Tasting note
The upper part is colluvial gravel, while the bottom of the slope is on much deeper clay. The Arlaud holding covers both. Solid dense purple. Fresh black cherry and mulberry without being too rich. An explosion of fruit runs through the middle, some acidity, stays poised though the fruit profile suggests over richness. Pretty stunning again. Tasted Nov 2020.
