Madiran is famous for its wines of character, deep and intense, requiring a lot of year of aging. Here it's quite another thing. A wine that honors Tannat, in a greedy cuvée, juicy, "on the fruit" to drink on its youth. Beautiful silky texture in the mouth. Nice winemaking savoir faire. An easy wine, to drink young.

Madiran est réputé pour ses vins de caractère, profond et intense, nécessitant pas mal d’année de garde. Ici c’est tout autre chose. Un vin qui honore le Tannat, dans une cuvée, gourmande, juteuse, « sur le fruit » à boire sur sa jeunesse. Très belle texture soyeuse en bouche. Beau savoir faire de vinification. Un vin facile, à boire jeune. — 3 years ago

Why are you rating Tannat without FOOD?!
Would you do the same with Barolo? — 10 years ago

Great perfume in the noise, blood and herbs. Dark berries and chocolate. Smooth tannins, great acidity and a monster of a aftertaste. — 8 years ago

I have enjoyed quite a few bottles of this tannat. Very nice rich wine dark and concentrated with some minerality some dark dry fruit and a decent longish dry finish. Not as tannic as a lot of people think, could actually use some more tannic structure. This is more of a new world style, a (sadly) toned down old world wine to fit the more modern sweeter pallet to make it more accessible at a younger age, all in all though a nice stronger concentrated wine. — 8 years ago
