Bouza Monte Vide Eu Tannat/Merlot/Tempranillo 2018

Description

On current form, this is Uruguay’s best red blend, a world-class cuvée of Tannat with 35% Merlot and 20% Tempranillo. Aged in 90% new oak, it’s effortlessly harmonious: top notes of violet, sweet spices and cut grass, palate of cassis, plum, strawberry, nuanced tannins and a detailed, satisfying finish. Drinking window: 2023-2035. Score – 97. (Tim Atkin, MW, decanter.com, Aug. 31, 2020)
