Alto de la Ballena 2011 Reserve Tannat-Viognier Red (Uruguay)

Country: Uruguay / Reserve Tannat-Viognier
Variety: Red Blend Uruguay
Winery: Alto de la Ballena /

This Tannat (with 15% Viognier) is full and oaky up front, with vanilla notes accenting berry aromas. Astringent tannins make for a rubbery palate. Lightly stewed flavors of plum and mixed spices finish long, with a note of herbal tomato.
