Bizarra Extravaganza Tannarone 2020
Tannat, taken in a wonderfully unexpected direction.
Tannarone begins with Tannat grapes allowed to dehydrate naturally on the vine, concentrating their character before a spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts in concrete. The wine then remains in concrete for two years, building depth and texture without covering the fruit in oak.
Ripe fruit and homemade quince jam meet rose petals on the nose. The palate is intense, powerful and deeply expressive, with a generous texture and the unmistakable structure of Uruguay’s signature grape.
