Mmmmmmm. Red fruit on the nose. Noticeable acidity compared to the other Garzon wines. Punishing tannin, dried red fruit, clove and baking spices on the finish. Weighty, sandpaper texture. A consistently exciting producer.

Rich and soft stewed cherry and plum. Gentle acid. Mild, grainy tannins. Holds up on day two. A great intro to the new wave of Uruguayan wine.

Approachable . Red and black berries. Starts out fruity but fairly decent finish. Medium tannins. Medium acidity.

Fantastic Cab Franc from Uruguay......I'm extremely impressed. It paired excellent at Fogo de Chão Indianapolis

Beautiful taste especially for a dry wine. I recommend as a first try. However I would not get it again

Rich and fruity, not the usual earthy cab franc. Gorgeous dark color with layers of deep red fruit, violets, and juicy cherries.
