Very unique old world hybrid grape between cab sav and grenache. Decanted for a hour. Definitely needs air time and ideally paired with some food. Bright mouth watering acidity. Smokey black cherry aromas. Cherry, raspberry, mushrooms, and charcoal flavors.
Unique and worth seeking out. The Garzon Uruguayan version of this grape is another example to try. — 6 years ago

The wine offers a light, golden hue and the aromas we want with the Albarino grape. The honeysuckle is right up front, followed closely by pineapple and tangerine. An earthy note shows on the palate, a minerality that goes far beyond citrus zest. There’s a bright acidity that will support a Cobb salad or chicken breast just as well as it does a handful of walnuts. — 10 years ago

I like it because it’s so rare. Jammy nose. Tannic but not over the top, probably because it’s 6 years old. Still tastes young, but not too. Plums. Blueberries. — 7 years ago

Brought this back from our trip to Uruguay. One of the better blended ones and I can remember I was fed up with all the single varietal tannat when I was there. Great spice, herbs, mint, good acidity and only slightly tannat-tanic. — 9 years ago
