Tarara 2010 TerraNoVA Tannat (Virginia)

Country: US / TerraNoVA
Variety: Tannat Virginia
Winery: Tarara / Virginia

As Virginia wines can sometimes struggle with acid retention, wines made using naturally high-acid varieties like Tannat are making waves. This bottling of 100% Tannat has aromas of dark cherry, pain grillé and savory spice, with a grilled portobello underpinning. Assertive, strapping tannins lay the foundation, and the uplifting acids add cut. Only 70 cases produced.
