A nice dense, juicy and fruit-forward wine but I think the varietal gets a little "lost" in the 15.8% alc.

15.8% alc.
Nice, quaffable and juicy on the attack but finishes a bit hot and disjointed. Aromatics are almost like an over-extracted Pinot.

For a more true varietal portray of domestic Tannat I would recommend the wines from Y. Rousseau.

Surprisingly fruit forward for a Tannat. Lots of red raspberry on the palate.
