Bodega Pablo Fallabrino 2018 Tannat, Atlantida

This is the "classic" Tannat of Fallabrino, a red that comes from vineyards planted around the mid-90s in the clay and lime soils of Atlantis, about four kilometers from the waters of the Río de la Plata where it meets the the salty waters of the Atlantic. With 30% of the blend aged in very old barrels, it is a photograph of the variety in Canelones, with its austerity, its earthy tones (like Nebbiolo) and the firm, intense, rough tannins, surrounded by ripe red fruits, spices and flowers. Although you can drink it now with salami, it is better to wait three to four years for it to gain complexity.
