Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Dark, roasted and smelling of licorice, root beer, savory oak and smoke. The palate is hard and saturated, with smack-down tannins that are surely due to the 46% Tannat in the blend. Syrah and Petit Verdot are the remaining elements in this roasted, sweet, oaky wine that finishes with burnt marshmallow.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The best wine from this bodega. It’s focused and spicy, with black fruit and depth to the nose and none of the weird, rubbery, roasted characteristics that are sometimes found in Uruguayan wines. Round on the palate, with black cherry and cassis. A good option for grilled meats.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Not very lively or fruity. Vague aromas and flavors of nectarine and citrus are sticky, grabby and bland. Not a good rosé by any measuring stick.
