100 pts Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate

Finca Piedra Infinita Gravascal 2021 is an enological masterpiece crafted by Sebastián Zuccardi, sourced from an exceptionally small 0.73-hectare parcel within the legendary Piedra Infinita estate, in the heart of Paraje Altamira, Uco Valley. This wine embodies Zuccardi’s relentless pursuit of expressing the purest identity of Mendoza’s terroir, born from soils where Malbec roots intertwine with gravel and granite stones coated in calcium carbonate.

"A wine of astonishing clarity and depth. Aromas of violets, graphite, dried herbs, and fresh black fruit unfold in precise layers that clearly reveal its stony origin. On the palate, it is firm, elegant, and vibrant, with filigreed tannins and a mineral tension that runs through the entire mouthfeel. A mountain Malbec that combines energy, purity, and sophistication in every sip. A global benchmark for Argentine wine." — Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
