Gimenez Mendez, Canalones (Uruguay) Tannat 2020

Jan 18, 2023

By Rich Cook

 The Las Brujas vineyards are in Canalones about 40 minutes north of Montevideo.  This is an edgy Tannat, aged in an American and French oak blend of barrels for 9 months.  It is long on black plum and charred oak aromas and flavors, and dusty tannins accentuate some dried herbs in the finish.
