Dusty ruby color. Fruity aromas and flavors of jam, red apple, lavender, and soufflé with a lightly tannic, lively, dryish medium body and a warming, medium-length finish with grippy tannins and light oak flavor. A lighter-bodied, fruit forward Tannat with wide appeal and big grip.

Tannat

Tannat is a red wine made from the grape of the same name. While it is grown in the Basque region of south west France, today it is best known in Uruguay. Here Tannat is ripe with deep purple color and firm tannins. Most versions from Uruguay are inexpensive, priced from $10 to $15 a bottle, no doubt as there is not a great demand for the wine. Pair these wines with rich red meats or grilled foods.
