Legal Sea Foods' Familia Zuccardi Argentine Wine Dinner

For over 50 years Familia Zuccardi has produced wines of exceptional quality from the soils of Mendoza, Argentina, and has since become one of Argentina's most well-known, family owned wineries as well as a leading exporter of Argentine wine all over the world. Third generation owner of the Familia Zuccardi brand, Sebastián Zuccardi, will present the selection of wines paired with each course of the evening providing expert knowledge and history of each tasting.

In 1963, Alberto Zuccardi, Sebastián's grandfather and skilled engineer used a self-built irrigation system to begin experimenting with planting vines throughout a province of Mendoza. Those methods and experimentations are responsible for the growth and success of the Zuccardi brand today. In 2005, Sebastián took over the reins of the winery and led the development of the winery's expansion into the Uco Valley, a cultivated oasis at the foot of the Andes, Mendoza. Today, each Zuccardi winery provides a unique combination of climate, soil and cultivating which allows each line of wines to be a true expression of where it was conceived.

Legal Sea Foods will team up with Zuccardi's owner, Sebastián Zuccardi to host an exclusive four-plus-course wine dinner. The menu will be presented as follows in Park Square's 10,000 bottle wine cellar.
