title: Horton 2014 Tannat (Virginia)
description: A grape known in Uruguay and Madiran has proved to show well in Virginia and this is a solid example. This wine has a pronounced nose of red berries, barnyard and purple flowers. Flavors of raspberry, cranberry, red plum and violet ease the way into more spicy and charred notes. A firm tannic grip is softened by zippy acidity that gives the palate a nice lift.
variety: Tannat
