DeLucca 2004 Rio Colorado Red (El Colorado)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $35
Among the Uruguayan wines we've tried more than once, this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Tannat and Merlot has integrity. It's light and herbal on the nose, with red fruit and spearmint aromas leading to a palate of cherry and red raspberry. Feelwise, it's tight and tough, but with food it will show fairly well.  — M.S.  (6/8/2010)

Round and tight, like Tannat is known to be, with burly black-fruit aromas and flavors. There’s detectable cassis and raisin notes prior to a spicy, tannic finish that deals licorice and coffee. Pretty heavy, full-bodied stuff for sure, but a decent rendition of Tannat. Very much worth a go.  — M.S.  (1/1/2004)

Beefy and stocky, with a dark tint, big tannins and a very masculine personality. The palate yields blackberry fruit in ripe form, and the finish is expectedly tight and tannic, with a drying sensation that builds quickly. Still, with roast or barbecued meats, it will work.  — M.S.  (1/1/2004)
