Straight mocha and spice! Red fruit and cinnamon on the nose. Cocoa and spice overload on the tongue. Body and mouthfeel is balanced but spice is cloying. Had with tacos, good pairing.

Viva Uruguay!!!! I really love this wine and the blend is great. 60% Tempranillo 40% Tannat its 14.5% Alcohol by volume but you wouldn't know. I really wish these wines would make it to the USA. At $23 a great price for the level of quality. Not sure how it will age but it's so yummy the bottles I brought may not last.

A bit damp on the nose to begin with however palate was very rounded and smooth with loads of perfectly ripe fruit. After airing in the glass nose really evolve an showed this fruit. Great value wine.

Tannat #4. Cant tell the difference between the 2013 and 2011. These are great wines for the dollar. Love it.

Deep, dark, delicious. Great flavors. Medium dry with medium tannins. New to Tannat but so far Im loving this grape. It's in your face delicious. Tasting number two with two more to come in the next week or two.
