PLAIMONT

Expect rich, dark red wines from the robust Tannat grape, with flavors of blackberry, black plum, cassis, licorice, smoke, cocoa, leather, and earthy spice. This dessert wine offers a dual identity in Madiran, France, where it traditionally produces deeply structured, powerful, savory wines that can benefit from time to soften their edges, or in Uruguay, where maritime influences often result in more fruit-forward, approachable expressions while preserving the grape's dark core. Perfect for pairing with grilled meats and other hearty dishes, this wine is a clear illustration of tannin’s drying sensation when balanced by its fruity, savory complexity.
