Bodega Garzón Single Vineyard Tannat (2023)

Bodega Garzón is close to Punta del Este, La Barra, and Jose Ignacio – Uruguayan Paradise at its best, with mesmerizing landscapes. Located eleven miles from the Atlantic Ocean, our estate has more than 1,000 small vineyard blocks covering its hillside slopes, which benefit from varying microclimates, different levels of humidity, and an intense canopy management. These factors allow the vines to develop with maximum exposure to the sun providing rich, expressive fruit. The vineyards are surrounded by lush forests, rocky soils, granite boulders, and naturally occurring palm trees.

This vineyard is cooler than other blocks on the estate. With steep slopes and thin soils, and with execellent drainage due to the predominance of ballast in the upper layers.

Of a deep purple color, this powerful Tannat has an elegant nose, with aromas reminiscent of red fruits such as cherries and strawberries, black plums, tobacco and black chocolate on a spice-flavored range. It is a full-bodied wine with a juicy and fresh mouth, pleasant sensation and a long and vibrant finish. A wine of great structure, it pairs nicely with regional dishes such as local lamb. Cured cheeses like Parmesan or a duck cassoulet showcase the wine’s spicy notes. It pairs perfectly with traditional French cuisine.
