This Carbonic Maceration Tannat from Pizzorno Family Estates is a refreshing, vibrant, and unexpectedly playful interpretation of Uruguay’s most powerful grape. Crafted using full-carbonic maceration in concrete tanks, it highlights the fruit-forward, aromatic side of Tannat—offering charm, lift, and approachability without sacrificing varietal character.

Expect bright, juicy red fruits, gentle floral tones, and the signature banana note typical of carbonic fermentation. On the palate, the wine is smooth, balanced, and light on tannins, making it exceptionally drinkable and versatile. A youthful, modern Tannat that celebrates freshness over power—perfect for those who enjoy vivid aromatics and an easy, enjoyable structure.

Tasting Notes

Color: Light ruby with violet reflections and medium intensity—fresh and youthful.

Aroma: Dominated by red fruits such as raspberry and cherry, complemented by a classic carbonic banana note and a hint of floral lift.

Palate: Smooth, balanced, and fruit-forward. Low tannins and lively acidity make the wine refreshing, gentle, and highly approachable.

Overall: A bright, modern, and easy-drinking expression of Tannat. Ideal with pasta, white meats, or enjoyed slightly chilled for maximum freshness.

Storage & Cellaring

Long-Term Storage (Unopened)

To preserve the wine’s structure and aromatic complexity, follow these storage recommendations:

  • Keep bottles in a cool, dark place, protected from direct sunlight and vibration.
  • Ideal cellaring temperature: 12–18°C (55–64°F) with stable conditions.
  • Store bottles horizontally to keep the cork hydrated and prevent oxidation.
  • Properly stored, this Tannat can evolve gracefully for 5–8 years due to its tannin structure and oak aging.

After Opening

  • Re-cork tightly and store upright to minimize oxygen contact.
  • Keep in a cool environment (wine fridge recommended).
  • Best enjoyed within 4–6 days for ideal freshness.
    (If vacuum-sealed or preserved with inert gas, it may last slightly longer.)

Serving Tip

  • For best expression, decant 30–60 minutes before drinking to soften tannins and open aromatics.
