Progreso, Uruguay

Pisano

ArretXea Grand Reserve Tannat Blend 2015

Dark red purple with near black core. Inviting nose and medium full palate of black currant, burnt plum, and light tar with medium acidity and lip smacking, medium plus tannins, all carried through the medium long finish. That finish is dark and site particularly prominently mid-tongue. A steak wine without question, but also at home with a wide range of hearty and rustic fare. Drink now through 2028. — 4 days ago

Light with medium body. Wonderful to have a glass while walking around the yard enjoying the trees and flowers. Pleasant with no bite. — 2 months ago

Punches well above its weight. Medium bodied with white peach, lime peel, sea breeze, and slate. Great structure, texture, and acid. From maritime Uruguay. Pair with ceviche. — a month ago

Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Another solid vintage. Nice light straw color. Aromas of lemon, wet stones and grass. Palate is full of lychee, green melon, grapefruit and lemon with abundant mineral notes on the finish. Bristling acidity. Crisp, steely and refreshing. More than just quality Red Wine from this excellent Uruguayan producer. — 5 months ago

Reserva Maldonado Tannat 2019

For under $20 this is such a steal. Dark and inky, but a lot of vibrancy. Has a smoky vibe on the nose but is complimentary towards plums, blackberries, and vanilla. Smooth but with great structure. Features chocolate and plum and a lot of earthy leathery feels. Totally dig it. — 3 months ago
