Las Moras - Tannat (2006)

Las Moras Reserve
Tannat
San Juan, Argentina, 2006

It starts lightly, with lots of fruit, and eases into a sweet, silky, and woody, but slightly spicy finish.
A subtle but deep wine. Tannat is a new grape on the scene and I am enjoying discovering it more. In this wine, I loved the balance between woody and fruity.

Château Aydie - Tannat (2005)

Château Aydie
Tannat
Vignobles Laplace, Madiran, France (2005)

Dry start that quickly evolves into a dark sensuous fruit. This Tannat has all the character and elegance of the grape, with the slight French zing. Best decanted and let to breathe for the best body.
