Giminez Mendez, Canelones (Uruguay) Tannat 2009

Jun 6, 2012

By Michael Franz

 This wine shows a lot of class for the money, with impressive concentration and depth of flavor but also a character that seems both natural and complete, which are words of high praise in my lexicon.  The ripe fruit is brightened by notable acidity and the wood seems to be seamlessly integrated.  Terrific stuff.
