Growing Conditions

The Tannat is the Uruguayan emblematic stock variety and Garzón is the perfect place for it to thrive thanks to the climate conditions, the special land features and the unique biodiversity. Only 18 kilometres away from the Atlantic Ocean, the constant breeze coming to Garzón’s vineyards impregnates our wines with a unique flavour. The ballast offers a stony and soft soil and allows optimal drainage conditions. These soils are also characterised by their minerality, which helps create a balanced wine.


Nose

An elegant nose, with aromas reminding of red fruits such as cherries and strawberries, black plums, tobacco and black chocolate on a spiced flavour range.

Palate

It has a juicy and fresh mouth and is a full-bodied wine with a very nice sensation and a long and vibrant aftertaste.

Appearance

A deep purple colour.

Food Pairing

A wine of solid structure, it pairs ideally with regional South American dishes such as lamb and goat. Cured cheeses like Parmesan or a duck cassoulet showcase the wine’s spicy notes. It is an ideal pairing with traditional French cuisine.
