They call it Special Barrel, and one sniff tells you that this is a Tannat raised in pricey French oak barrels. And that’s not a criticism; the wine is toasty, with alluring charcoal and smoke aromas. The palate is up to it as well, as it exhibits bright, elevated dark-fruit flavors. Nicely balanced for the most part, with plenty of cassis, berry and plum character.

Bouza is one of the few Uruguayan wineries that’s ready to compete on the world stage. This Tannat-Merlot blend is deep and dark, with saturated blackberry and dark plum flavors. It’s a bit heavy and clumsy, with some chocolate on the finish. But overall it’s a well-made New World red that will accompany steak and other grilled meats.
