Progreso, Uruguay
Uruguayan wine is not popular. Tannat is it's mainstay, a Southwest France varietal, this wine was good, showing concentration, with just a little too much heat initially, but becoming balanced by bottle's end. A touch too much oak for my liking, because, I am a hog for fruit tannins and the curled lip of the Rhino. A great effort at a great price.

India ink in hue. Muscular with chewy tannins. Rich in leather, well integrated wood, with roasted black fruits and savory herbs.
