MORE INFORMATION

Como uva insignia de Uruguay, el Tannat prospera en los suelos arcillo-calcáreos y el clima oceánico de Montevideo, donde la familia Traversa lleva tres generaciones elaborando vinos. La cosecha 2019 ofrece un carácter varietal clásico con un estilo accesible.

En copa, presenta un intenso tono púrpura con reflejos violáceos. En nariz, se perciben moras maduras, ciruelas y sutiles especias, acentuadas por matices terrosos y herbáceos. En boca, es estructurado pero suave, con taninos firmes equilibrados por una acidez fresca, lo que lo hace ideal para envejecer y acompañar comidas.

Un compañero perfecto para carnes a la parrilla, cordero asado o guisos ricos, este galardonado Tannat refleja la autenticidad y el valor que han hecho de Familia Traversa una de las bodegas más confiables de Uruguay desde 1956.

"This is a wine I like to open when dinner is meant to be enjoyed slowly. Every glass seems to become a little more expressive, reminding me that some of the best evenings are the ones with nowhere else to be."

About This Wine

Where does this wine come from?

Bodega Bouza, Montevideo & Canelones, Uruguay. Bodega Bouza farms vineyards in Melilla, just outside Montevideo, and in nearby Las Violetas, Canelones—two regions shaped by Uruguay's temperate climate and the nearby Río de la Plata. Warm days, cool evenings, and well-drained soils allow each vineyard to ripen slowly, producing wines with remarkable balance, freshness, and elegance. While the winery is just minutes from Uruguay's capital, every bottle reflects a deep commitment to expressing the unique character of each site.

Who makes this wine?

Eduardo Boido

Winemaker Eduardo Boido has helped establish Bodega Bouza as one of Uruguay's benchmark estates through meticulous vineyard management and a philosophy that values precision over intervention. Every vineyard block is harvested and vinified separately, allowing each wine to reflect its origin with clarity, balance, and authenticity. His careful attention to detail has earned Bouza international recognition for producing some of the country's most refined wines.

Why did we choose this wine?

We chose this wine because it delivers the precision of Bouza in a more accessible expression. It has the dark fruit and structure expected from Tannat, but with the balance and refinement that make Bouza’s style so recognizable. It is an excellent introduction to both the grape and one of Uruguay’s benchmark family wineries.
