Zuccardi Q Uco Valley, Mendoza, 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon (Argentina)





Zuccardi Q Uco Valley, Mendoza, 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon (Argentina), $16.99-$19.99, 89 points, appeared inky black except for a thin ring of Shiraz purple/red, a clear wine ring, and moderately fat legs.
Aromatic earthy black olives, cassis, and a soft floral vibe were good.
Full-bodied with mouthwatering acids and a comfortable blanket (it must be cold outside) of tannin carried along flavors reflective of the aromas and hints of tobacco and plum.
Finished long and licoricey with warm spices, fig notes, and a well-balanced 14% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with our loaded Papa Gino's pizza.
