Carlos Montes Tannat

Winery: Montes Toscanini

Grape: Tannat

Vintage:  2022

Winemaking: The harvest is manual and at the time of vatting, selected yeasts are inoculated to obtain a regular and complete fermentation, temperatures of 25º, allowing it to make slight temperature peaks, with extractive techniques of pump-overs and delestage more than once a day. The maceration lasts between 18 to 20 days. It undergoes malolactic fermentation and later a long process of clarification and natural settling in a pool. Then it goes on to the stage of aging in oak barrels for twelve months. 

Tasting notes: A deep and clean purple wine. Expressive and complex nose that gives us both fruit aromas and notes of aging in oak, where ripe black fruits stand out on a background of coffee and slightly smoked. Complexity is maintained on the palate, it is intense and broad, with velvety tannins. A wine with a very good balance between the aging oak and the virtues of Tannat.

Food Pairing:  Red Meats and pasta..
