Reserva Maldonado Tannat

Inky in color with a short reddish rim.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with mild complexity.

Showing black fruits with wood, earth, light herbs, chocolates, tobacco leaf and peppercorn.

Medium finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a nice and interesting tannant from Uruguay. Smoky, spicy, and feels like a Californian Syrah.

Needs a couple of hours to open up properly.

Good by itself or with food.

14% alcohol by volume.

$20.

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.

Uruguayan Tannat. A good one at that 🇺🇾

Deep purple and opaque. Nose is full of blue and black fruit, chocolate, and dried herbs. A full bodied palate coats your mouth in a delicious way. Firm tannins with silky edges. Medium acid. Medium complexity. Juicy length. A very well made and serious wine of incredible value. Perfect for an #asado #tannat #uruguay #bodegagarzon #ctbucklinwine

At first, an odd whiff of aged tofu, that starts to evolve into berry blends..

Medium to heavy, blackberry seed, barnyard funk, black cherry kefir acidity, powdery new oak tannins.
Tannat from Uruguay - excellent.

Deep berry, chocolate, chalk, smoke. Smooth tannins with structure. Decent length finish. Way outperforms its price point. Great job Uruguay!!

Very impressive. Love a good tannat and hate an under achieving tannat. This however is very good. Bing Cherry and leather on the front. Chaulky black fruit on the finishing notes. Had ours with a specialty pizza of pepperoni and mushrooms. Absolutely a fabulous pairing! Lastly, the spice on this slightly tannic blend is perfect. ♥️

Vintage 2017 / eucalyptus good balance
