Texas Tannat

This is an unusual varietal which apparently does well in the Texas climate. It is extremely oaky, tasting a bit like scorched cardboard. It has a nice blueberry and spice flavor profile under the oak. It may benefit from decanting.

Bob and John absolutely kill it with this grape. Well done gentlemen. Fruit spice and pepper all together.

Not a big fan of the flavor on this. Almost tastes slightly acidic

2010 vintage that is drinking really well. Dark fruit, leather, pepper with the robust tannic finish you expect from Tannat. Proof this varietal is a hit in Texas and that you shouldn't be afraid to try a lone star state bottle
