Vina progreso Old vines tannat 2018

Meet Vina Progreso's Tannat: a dry red wine hailing from Uruguay from the 2018 vintage. A quick word on the grape: Tannat is a powerful red grape, the flagship of Uruguay, producing deeply colored, tannic and full-bodied wines built for aging. Uruguay is South America's quiet achiever, best known for hearty Tannat alongside a growing cast of fresh, characterful wines. It's made from old vines, which tend to give deeper, more concentrated fruit. It loves rich, meaty food — think grilled red meat, braises and a wedge of aged cheese. Pop it open at cool room temperature — a brief chill on a hot day doesn't hurt.
