Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Full and wholesome on the nose, with blackberry, cherry and smoke aromas. Tastes good as a full package, with a pure finish. A rock-solid wine, clearly the best in the Tango line.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Prickly aromas are sour; there’s just too much rhubarb and bramble to the nose. Texture is the wine’s main attribute; the palate is firm and structured, yet soft enough to enjoy. Problem is the flavor profile is marred by mild weediness and green flavors. Incongruous as a whole.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A little old by now, but the smooth, light aromas convey additional life and freshness. The palate mixes citrus and apple, while there’s some white-pepper spice on the finish. Fairly full, but low-acid.

Tango Chardonnay - 2002

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Rubbery on the nose, with bold lactic aromas along with spice and red fruit. The sketchy palate reveals cherry and chocolate, and those flavors come with a kick. Fairly aggressive given the depth of fruit and polish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A bit uncommon and scattered on the bouquet, but deep digging reveals mincemeat and blueberry notes. The palate offers simple red-fruit flavors prior to a light, tart finish. Fresh and likable.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
At first you almost have to laugh at the name. Would the Spanish call one of theirs “Bullfight?” That said, the wine itself isn’t bad. It’s a bit heavy, forceful and unrefined. What hinders it is a rubbery mouthfeel and a mild burn to the finish.

Tango Malbec - 2001

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Quite funky at first, with initial cotton- candy aromas that mix in hints of leather and light red fruit. Things find a more even keel aided by time in the glass, and finally it ends softly. Not much stuffing but not bad.

Tango Merlot - 2002

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Aromas of leather, tobacco and rubber border on artificial but hold the line. The fat palate features plum fruit, while the finish turns oaky, buttery and tangy. Even if this doesn’t hit the bull’s eye, it’s nice enough.
