Soils of alluvial origin from volcanic materials washed over millions of years that formed very deep sandy reddish sediments rich in iron, with great depth and increased drainage.

Aromas of black fruits like blackberry and black plum combine with red fruit like red cherry and hints of orange zest, vanilla, and chocolate in this Tannat from Cerro Chapeu.

Planted in 1993 with French origin vines, on the sandy soils of the North of the country, this wine showcases tannins that are round and fine-grained. The wine is elegant, with subtlety and balance, reflecting its 12 months of barrel aging. The result is a fresh, vibrant expression of fruit with an underlying complexity.

Deep ruby red.

Fermentation is completed in barrels, 30% new oak, and it was aged “sur lie” for 10 to 14 months without any raking.

Harvested by hand in 15 kg boxes on February 25th 2020 with optimum maturity.

Estate bottled with minimal handling.
