The wine region of Las Violetas

Elite terroir of Canelones (Uruguay), 'grand cru' of Uruguayan Tannat, clay-limestone Burgundy-like soils, Atlantic oceanic climate. Exclusive signature Tannat red king: traditional austere version built for ageing — concentrated with blackberry, black cherry, plum, dried flowers, herbs, leather and cocoa touch, tight needle tannins that refine with age. Old-school, monastic style, decant or wait. Historic Uruguayan identity.


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: Volume

Characteristic of a wine that gives the impression of being full in the mouth.
