CLOS BASTE's TANNAT offers a glimpse into the rich potential of this grape variety. Known for its firm tannins and dark fruit profile, TANNAT can be both powerful and long-lived, with origins in Madiran in southwest France where it traditionally produces robust wines. In Uruguay, maritime influences and different winemaking traditions often result in more approachable yet still deeply structured expressions of the grape. Expect a wine that showcases blackberry, black plum, cassis flavors, along with savory notes like licorice, smoke, cocoa, leather, and earthy spice. Enjoy it with hearty dishes like grilled meats or sausages for a perfect pairing experience.
