| | | | | WINE TASTING GUY FEBRUARY 26, 2008 Alto Adige Wines Grand Tasting This blend of 20% Tannat (a grape originally from SW France), 30% Petit Verdot (a Bordeaux varietal) and 50% Lagrein was very nice. I was fortunate to be able to attend the Alto Adige Grand Tasting this afternoon. While there were winemakers in attendence, many of them seemed disinterested in speaking with the guests. new record high for me. | | | | | | | |

BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE | FRIDAY, JANUARY 4, 2008 Brooklyn Wine Bars: Black Mountain Wine House
asked if I could taste the 2005 Vinedo de los Vientos Tannat from Uruguay, $8, kind of in homage to Joe who likes Tannat, and they brought me a nice little pour. Which is fine, since it's about a 5 minute walk to bustling Smith or Court Streets. But don't let that turn you off - this is a really nice place. Just look at this wine list. MORE >> -
BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE | WEDNESDAY, MARCH 12, 2008  Jenny & Francois Portfolio Tasting

Maybe it's just odd wine making. Maybe a bit of both. MORE >> -
BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE | MONDAY, APRIL 7, 2008  Jenny & Francois Follow Up
Whatever the reason, if I had to choose right now I would select this wine as the value red of 2008. And this is Malbec we're talking about, with a little bit (5%) of Tannat thrown in. I was very much impressed with the Jenny & Francois portfolio , so much so that I decided to buy a few and taste them at home with dinner. MORE >> -

It is a blend of Cabernet Franc and Tannat. Tannat is one of the most tannic grapes on the globe but somehow this producer finds calm balance in the blend. The following is an interview with Keith Beavers, co-owner of In Vino Wine Bar & Restaurant and Alphabet City Wine Co. Keith also writes a blog called East Village Wine Geek. MORE >> -
VIGNA UVA VINO | MONDAY, MAY 19, 2008 Domaine Monte De Luz Carquera Tannat 2007 Uruguay
Domaine Monte De Luz Carquera Tannat 2007. Uruguay and Tannat. Dark ruby/violet in color and full bodied, this 100% tannat is juicy and full of aromas like plums, blackberries and smoky tar, laden with flavors of spice and jam. two firsts for me, but I was pleasantly surprised. soft and lush, with smooth tannins.
