Atlàntida Tannat
Worth your attention. The world of wine is indeed a grand embarrassment of riches.
The winemaker is an absolute gentleman as well. Bonus points.

Hard to criticize tannat. Eruptive tannic structure, petroleum, tar and roses. Reminds me so much of young nebbiolo. Abrasive and ferocious before some age settles the energy.

Jan 21st, 2017Inky and dark. Needs at least an hour to open up. Rich black fruit, chocolate, mocha, perhaps subtle vegetal note. Grippy but not overwhelmingly tannic. Good structure with high acid. Very good now and probably for at least a few years.

Aug 23rd, 2017Interesting. Major chocolate nose. Leather on the palate. Not as tannic as I would have thought. Good acidity.
