Description
In a nutshell:
Think blackberries, a hint of leather, and the satisfying rumble of a well-loved vintage Land Rover - this is a Tannat with both muscle and charm.
The lowdown:
This glassful is a bit of a revelation. It's got a depth of flavour that's unexpected, all dark berries and brooding plums, laced with a hint of something intriguing - like someone snuck a clove or two into the fruit bowl. The tannins are there, firm but friendly, like a handshake from a sun-baked gaucho. Sip it slowly, and it unfurls on the tongue, revealing whispers of vanilla and something altogether more mysterious, a touch of that rugged, high-altitude desert where the grapes were grown. This South American number will show you a darned good time.
The Producer:
Nestled amidst the world's highest vineyards in Argentina's remote Salta region, Bodega El Esteco enjoys a rich heritage dating back to 1892. This long-established winery in the town of Cafayate boasts over 800 hectares of vines and is now part of the esteemed Grupo Peñaflor family. Head winemaker Alejandro Pepa masterfully harnesses their extensive, modern facilities. The result? Exemplary wines that showcase the unique terroir of Cafayate, expressing both the bright sunshine and the cool mountain air of this captivating region.
When to drink:
A robust red, its warm aromas and richness make it a fine companion for grilled meats and smoky flavours.
Suitable for Vegans
