Ambient-yeast white from Maipú's gravel-sandy soils — unfined, unsulfured, from Argentina's largest certified-organic vineyard holding.
José Alberto Zuccardi named this brand after his daughter Julia in the 1980s, but the Natural line represents the family's most deliberate break from Mendoza convention: zero additions, zero sulfur, zero filtration. The Cuy White draws fruit from Familia
Zuccardi's estate at Maipú — approximately 650 m elevation, arid continental climate with extreme diurnal swing — where well-drained gravel over sandy soils limit vine vigour and concentrate aromatic intensity while preserving the acidity that defines this line.
Fermentation proceeds on ambient/indigenous yeasts with no sulfur additions at any stage; the wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered, preserving every textural and aromatic compound the fruit delivers. What sets the Cuy White apart within the Natural range is its white-wine expression of a philosophy more commonly applied to skin-contact or red cuvées — a genuinely rare format in Mendoza's natural-wine output.
Argentina's largest certified-organic vineyard holding (~400 ha, first certified 2001) and 'Fair for Life' certification (2013) underpin every bottle. Drink on release for maximum freshness and aromatic lift.
Sommelier’s pick: Grilled whole sea bass with salsa verde · Burrata with heirloom tomatoes and anchovy · Ceviche with leche de tigre and ají amarillo
