Pisano
Cisplatino Tannat-Merlot Blend
Progreso, Uruguay
Great value in South America still!
Uruguay, has some of the best expressions of Tannat, in my opinion. Bold, fruit driven, juicy mouth full of excellent wine. Love a wine like this that does not try to be a hotel wine, yet stand by itself.

Dark purple red in the glass. Big, blousey nose of violets, prunes, and patent leather. Medium full body with medium tannins. Dark palate of black fruits and dried violets, followed up by a lengthy dark leather finish. This blend gives us the softer side of Tannat with a weight and favor profile almost like a Fronton. Lighter cuts of beef or heady stews will thank you!

Very happy with my wine purchase. Notes of sweet black cherry, it's really delightful, and lightly herby/floral on the nose with a bite of acidity
Initially it's very soft on the palate with undertones of cherry and blackberry. It's followed by a warm, rounded tannic body that continues to carry the cherry throughout. Ends very gently with a more berry/herby aftertaste with notes of unknown herbs

Fun little wine. Tannat and merlot blend. Had the 2021 in July of 2024. Paired with chicken pamplona and a butter bean salad. Some black cherry and herbal notes with medium tannins. Paired well with the smoke of the bacon and ham in the chicken. Would drink again.

Rich full bodied without being over powering. Dark fruit with dry finish. Hints of caramel and stone fruit

Not bad at all. Dark, brick red in the glass. Dark plums on the nose, dried violets, faint grilled mushroom, and just a hint a leather that I really wish there was more of. On the palate it's mostly dark cherry. Acidity and tannin are both medium, the latter being toned down a bit compared to most tannat wines. The finish is between short and medium. At first I thought this was a one-dimensional wine, but then found some of the secondary aspects to be present but somewhat veiled. This is a decent wine. But it has potential of being an even better wine.
