Description
Inky violet in color with a dense, brooding nose of black plum, blackberry, and licorice, lifted by hints of lavender, graphite, and black tea. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and powerful, with firm tannins and layered flavors of dark fruit, roasted herbs, cocoa, and wet stone. The long, savory finish hums with freshness and mineral grip — a bold yet balanced expression of Uruguay’s flagship grape.
