Viñedo de los Vientos

Atlàntida Tannat 2015

Inky 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. — 6 years ago

Artesana

Artesana Tannat Merlot Blend 2013

Great red from Uruguay. Big black fruit aromas. Full and ripe fruit flavors of blackberries and plums. Big note of juniper berries. Hints of herbs and just the right amount of oak. Rich and velvety texture. Did not have the big tannin structure I was expecting. Blending in 30% Merlot is a great move. Really softened the big Tennat tannin reputation. Outstanding vino! — 8 years ago

Bodega Garzon

Varietales Albariño 2015

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

Pisano

Cisplatino Tannat-Merlot Blend 2021

Very happy with my wine purchase. Notes of sweet black cherry, it's really delightful, and lightly herby/floral on the nose with a bite of acidity

Initially it's very soft on the palate with undertones of cherry and blackberry. It's followed by a warm, rounded tannic body that continues to carry the cherry throughout. Ends very gently with a more berry/herby aftertaste with notes of unknown herbs

Blend of #chardonnay #gewürtztraminer and #moscatel #muscat Chardonnay is the leading grape. Fresh and juicy, reminiscent of Sta Rita Hills. — 6 years ago

Bodega Garzon

Reserva Marselan 2016

Great expression of the Hybrid Marselan grape. So much better than I expected. Tasted side by side with a Marselan from Southern France. Though both were quite good, the Garzon version won the competition. Deep red color. Aromas and flavors of red fruit, minerals and menthol. Sweet spices on the long finish. Medium-plus body. Has the power of Cabernet Sauvignon and the brightness of Grenache. Quite expressive. Solid value. Very pleasant surprise. — 4 years ago

Bodegas Carrau Tannat de Reserva 2013

A bit tough to get the aromas with all the bbq smoke in the air, but dark fruit and plummy. Richness on the pallet and tannins dance with spice. Smooth body and leaves pallet chalky like a cab. Nice Uruguayan wine! — 9 years ago
