Tannat Reserve
Tannat
Originally from Maridan, it was introduced to Uruguay by Pascual Harriague in 1870. Its acclimation and expansion were so great that today it is the emblematic variety of our country. It is characterized by producing wines with high polyphenol content, very intense color, and a lot of body.
