Familia Deicas 2006 1st Cru d’Exception Tannat (Juanico)

Country: Uruguay / 1st Cru d’Exception
Variety: Tannat Juanico
Winery: Familia Deicas /

Ignore the crazy price on this aged Tannat and enjoy the overall high quality of this Uruguayan bruiser. Sun-baked, minty, earthy aromas scream “warm-climate” wine, while the palate is chunky in feel, with some hardness. Flavors of rich, stewed berries, tons of oak, related spice and earth notes finish hefty but with minimal stuffing. Drink now.
