2018 Pretium Tannat

With a dark and deep garnet color, this 2018 Pretium Tannat presents a gourmet, fruity nose bursting with cherry, black currant, and blackberry notes. Rippled with subtle notes of toasted spice, this red is structured with seductive aromas and a gradual, pleasant finish. This Tannat blend benefits from French hillsides enriched with limestone soil and arid gravel clay. This unique environment between la Bigorre, le Béarn, and l’Armagnac provides the grapes with a radiant climate tempered by ocean breezes. Traditional wine-making methods with an extended maceration period imbue this Tannat with its unique garnet hues and dark fruit flavors. This Pretium Tannat makes a delicious pair with rich red meat dishes. We like a roasted lamb, duck confit, and assorted aged cheese like Roquefort and Chaumes.
