Santiago Queirolo
Intipalka Tannat
Ica, Peru
There are certain varietals that when you have for the first time, kinda of leave you scratching your head like “why didn’t I try this before?” This was certainly in that category. Rich, ripe, delicious black fruit with mild tannins, really balanced earthiness and full-bodied structure. I could’ve easily believed this was a claret from Bordeaux. Instead it’s from a far corner of Peru. Go figure. I would highly recommend giving this a try!
