Garzón, Single Vineyard Tannat 2020, Garzón, Uruguay
Tasting Note: A tannat with some plushness and body.
Deep-intensity purple in color, this wine has an aromatic, medium-plus-intensity nose of black plum, raspberry, dried cherry, blackberry and leather.
On the palate the dry, full-bodied tannat has medium-plus intensity flavors suggested on the nose supported by medium acidity and slightly-grippy, medium-plus tannin.
There are some notes of complexity on the midpalate.
A hearty tannat.
Bottle Note: A selection of blocks with our highest-quality grapes. Balance and finesse are the most distinguishable attributes of this wine, Uruguay’s ambassador to the world. “Garzón tamed the tannat, setting a before and after in Uruguay’s flagship grape variety.” Alberto Atonini.
