The wine region of Canelones
Uruguay's main region north of Montevideo (~90% of national output). National star Tannat: powerful, structured reds with signature notes of blackberry, black plum, violet, leather, tobacco and spice, firm tannins and notable ageing potential — more Tannat planted here than in Madiran, its birthplace. Also round Merlot, peppery Cabernet Franc, spicy Syrah. Fresh saline Albarino whites.
The word of the wine: Cryo-extraction
This technique was very popular at the end of the 80's in Sauternes, a little less so now. The grapes are frozen before pressing, and the water transformed into ice remains in the marc, only the sugar flows out. As with the concentrators, the "cryo" can also increase bad taste and greenness.
