Expect rich, dark red wines from the enigmatic Tannat grape. Originating in Madiran, France, where it produces robust, structured wines that need time to soften their edges, this grape has found a new home in Uruguay, producing fruitier and more approachable expressions while maintaining its signature dark core. With flavors of blackberry, black plum, cassis, licorice, smoke, cocoa, leather, and earthy spice, Tannat offers full-bodied wines with high tannin and moderate to high acidity. Whether you're savoring a traditional Madiran or enjoying the maritime-influenced style from Uruguay, this wine is perfect for pairing with grilled meats, aged cheeses, and charred vegetables that can absorb its robust structure.
