No notes, to go along arguably the best cassoulet in the region. Black fruits on the nose, a bit of leather too. Great acid drive and great width, nice tannins all along and fine tannins that kick in the rear before a nice and delicate finish. Great stuff and pairing made in heaven. — 2 years ago

Strong tannins, hint of licorice. Pairs nicely with fatty cheese (especially a sharp cheddar). — 5 years ago

My prior experience with Tannat was limited to a bottle of Bodega Garzon, and I was not really a fan. This bottle gives me new perspective about the variety.
A blend of Tannat/CS/CF (60/20/20), it opens with ripe black fruits tinged with peppery spices, dark cocoa, cherry cola, and just hint of barnyard. Velvety palate with surprisingly polished tannins.
My first Madiran. Chateau Bouscassé is the home estate of Alain Brumont who also owns the more famous Chateau Montus. — 2 years ago

This is just like the picture describes, a simple wine meant to be had in streetside bistros with hearty dishes in the foothills of the Pyrenees Mountains. It is a narrative of place and practice. It brings together the timeless qualities of Tannat while showcasing a refined approach to blending and maturation which truly refines one of the strongest varietals in the world. — 23 days ago
