    Tannat: Home Away from Home

    feature / vinifera / Tannat TANNAT: HOME AWAY FROM HOME From Tannat’s contested South American debut, back to its origins in southwest France, and forward to its latest outposts in New Zealand, Julia Harding MW charts the rise of this climate-sensitive and terroir- transparent grape variety, now producing a thrilling range of wines orget the tango and dulce de leche, the competitive debate now simmering concerns Tannat’s first home in South America. Those waving the Argentine flag claim that the variety was brought to their country toward the end of the 19th century byF the Basque farmer Juan Jáuregui (born in Irouleguy in 1812), who traveled from Bordeaux to Montevideo in 1835, moving north to Salto before crossing the River Uruguay and settling in Concordia in the province of Entre Ríos in southern Argentina, immediately opposite the Uruguayan town of Salto. According to Alberto Moroy, a specialist in Argentinian and Uruguayan history, writing in Uruguay’s national newspaper El Pais in March 2016, Jáuregui planted the first Tannat cuttings in Concepción in 1861, brought over from France by his nephew Pedro Jáuregui. They apparently came via his paternal grandfather from the estate of Louis XVI. (Moroy’s account is based on a book by Frenchman Alexis Pierre Louis Edouard Peiret, A visit to the Colonies of the Argentine Republic, published in Buenos Airesin 1889.) Jáuregui was also the first to make wine in Concordia. The story continues with another Basque, Don Pascual Harriague (1819–94), who emigrated from Lapurdi (Labourd) to Uruguay in 1838 and settled in Montevideo. In 1840 he moved north to Salto, which is where he became interested in farming and eventually in grape-growing.

    2017 Tannat Was Bottled on August 15, 2019

    TANNAT 2017 TECHNICAL DATA pH: 3.68 Acid: 5.9 g/l Alcohol 13.7% GRAPE SOURCES 100% Tannat sourced entirely from Williams Gap Vineyard APPELLATIONS Loudoun County HARVEST DATES September 26, 2017 WINEMAKING DATA The grapes were destemmed into fermentation bins. The bins were allowed to cold soak for three days to help with color extraction and then immediately heated in a hot room to allow us to inoculate the must with BM 45 yeast. Fermentation lasted 13 days and then the wine stayed on its skin for three more days of post fermentation maceration to help with tannin extraction and then was pressed off to settle for two days until it was moved into barrels. The wine aged 22 months in one-year American oak from Berthomieu cooperage and new French oak from Ermitage cooperage. 2017 Tannat was bottled on August 15, 2019. WINEMAKER NOTES Tannat is a newer variety for Virginia that was originally planted as a blending grape but has also found a home at a lot of wineries as a varietal wine. The 2017 vintage is a more brooding version than the 2015 and 2016 Tannat wines were. With abundant tannins and acidity that will allow this wine to age for a long time. Strong aromas of blackberries along with a spice note lead into the same flavor of blackberries along with dark chocolate finished off with a touch of baking spice. The wine is held together with great structure, ample acidity and a full body that finishes with a lot of length on the palate.
