Hard to pin this one down. It has some of the darker fruit common in warm growing region but shows restraint in a fashion which reminds me of classy Bordeaux. Pretty cool.

Smooth and powerful, ruby color and a mix of aromas between leather and spices. Tempranillo and Merlot gives this wine elegance and Tannat personality. Is an icon wine of Uruguay

Intense color and aroma, great blend from Bouza, no doubt one of the most important wineries in Uruguay, a very special bottle, still young but ready to drink at the same time, just love this wine!
