This hand harvested, single vineyard wine from Gualtallary is 100% Malbec. This unique wine is completely fermented and aged in a large concrete egg and sees no oak. It is a dense, dark purple color with rich fruit flavors of blueberry and boysenberry, lilac and wet rain bounce on the nose, and has a strong mineral undertone of crushed wet rock and chalk. Eggo is the perfect combination of a chalky, terroir driven wine, with vibrant fruit and a long smooth finish.

My favorite of the Malbecs is the 2018 Eggo Tinto de Tiza, from a Mendoza year-mild and dry-and aged exclusively in concrete eggs, which to me is the Zorzal signature. This is elegant, nuanced and pure, with great aromatics, clean and precise and with a medium-bodied palate, with moderate ripeness and red rather than black fruit. This is superb. It matured for 10 months before it was bottled into 28,780 bottles in February 2019.

The 2018 Malbec Eggo Tinto de Tiza was fermented with native yeasts and aged in concrete eggs for 11 months. Reddish purple in the glass. Gunpowder and dark fruit, such as blackberry and blueberry, shimmer alongside herbs in a reductive nose that takes a while to open up. Terse in the mouth with a fine, juicy texture it is flavorful and long-lasting. A modern red.
