We've been waiting all year for the amazing Sebastián Zuccardi to come to the Flatiron Wine School mezzanine for a masterclass, and now that day is finally here! This iconic estate isn't just a huge part of the history of Argentine winemaking. With Sebastián at the helm, particularly in their robust research and experimental activities, Zuccardi also represents Argentina's exciting future.
Sebastián Zuccardi is part of the third generation of a family with a strong visionary and innovative spirit, positioned worldwide as one of the leading producers of great Argentine wines. He has participated in grape harvests in the main wine regions of the world - the United States, France, Spain, Italy, and Portugal, which allowed him to forge a philosophy that governs all his work in the vineyards and in the production of his wines: "achieving identity through the terroir."
In 1999, Sebastián began making sparkling wines from the Uco Valley using the traditional method, together with four friends through their project Alma 4. In 2007, he joined the family winery, leading the development of the high mountain region of the Uco Valley.
In 2009, Sebastián founded the Research and Development department with the aim of deepening the study of the diverse soils and other variables of the Uco Valley terroir and their expression in the wines. The team ́s work, exploring and discovering the richness of the area, with its diversity of soils, landscapes, and climates, has allowed them to cultivate wines that are a true reflection of the place.
There is no better guide to lead us through the wines of this amazing estate than winemaking director Sebastián Zuccardi.
The cost of this seminar is $30 and a $20 credit at the store will be extended to each guest for a future purchase. Seating is limited and special pricing on the featured wines will be made available only to attendees. We hope you can join us on the mezzanine at 6pm on Wednesday, October 16 for this special evening.
