Here Tannat is paired with Bordeaux varieties (Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, etc.) to produce an exotic blend that shows undeniable concentration and length. Unfortunately, there’s also a slight funkiness and a note of sawdust that sits on top of the wine, dampening the fruit.

This blend of several grapes led by Tannat is a touch gritty and stewed. Yes, it has its qualities such as jammy berry and a nice, fleshy feel. But it's wayward and jumpy, and overall balance is elusive. Very expenisve for what you get.

Weighty and rich, but the melon core to this Uruguayan Viognier is solid. The palate pumps round apple with walnut shadings, and the finish goes to melon, papaya and banana. It's already aging and won't last for long; get it while it's still good.

This blend of 50% Tannat and 50% Merlot is appealing in a rustic sense, with forest floor and woodsy scents layered over strawberry and plum fruit. Tannins are grippy and dense. Better after 2010.

This wine from 100% Tannat, Uruguay’s flagship grape variety, offers up an intriguing bouquet of salumeria. It’s honest and giving, with convincing flavors of roasted meat and blackberries set against a backdrop of vanilla. Clean and modern in style. Very promising.
