Behold,
this first vintage release of Estate Tannat from Bending Branch is quite
stunning. Sourced from their estate Lost Pirogue Vineyard in the Texas Hill
Country AVA, this rich, bold, and beautiful red wine is not only super delicious
on its own but is also fantastic to pair with some protein dishes or your best
dark chocolate. Cherry and cinnamon
notes really shine in this red jewel. The acids seem to be at the “sweet” spot
for this Tannat along with palatable tannins. Sip and swirl and you might also
pick up a hint of clove and maybe some currant. The technical details on the
back of the label will certainly be a joy for hard core wine geeks. Savor every
aspect of this red wine and enjoy it well. A true delight in the glass. Cheers!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
