Deep, inky purple with an almost opaque core. Dense and richly coloured, showcasing the intensity of the Tannat grape.
👃 Aromas
Powerful and expressive, with ripe black fruits—blackberry, plum and blackcurrant—supported by red berry lift.
Layers of spice, cedar, graphite and subtle herbal notes add complexity and regional character.
👅 Palate
Full-bodied and structured, delivering concentrated flavours of black plum, cherry and currant.
Firm, ripe tannins provide grip and backbone, balanced by fresh acidity and savoury notes of spice, cocoa and leather.
🍈 Texture & Finish
Dense and mouth-filling with fine-grained tannins.
The finish is long and persistent, with lingering dark fruit, spice and a mineral edge that adds precision and structure.
🍇 Overall Style
A modern, polished expression of Uruguay’s signature grape Tannat—powerful yet refined.
Combines bold structure with elegance and balance, showing why Uruguay is gaining global recognition for this variety.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with grilled steak, slow-cooked lamb, game meats or rich beef dishes.
Also excellent with aged cheeses or hearty, savoury meals.
🥂 BBD Verdict
A standout alternative to classic Shiraz or Cabernet—this Garzón Tannat delivers depth, structure and real personality.
Perfect for premium mixed dozens—bold, distinctive and a great conversation wine.
