A varietal originally from the Madiran region of southwestern France; Michael was one of the first to work with it in Virginia. Prior to fermentation, grapes were cold soaked and had a maceration period of 48 hours in order to extract tannin and color. Aged in 66% new French oak for 23 months. This wine is high acid, high alcohol, and high in tannin, which makes it great for aging; this vintage is prepared to age for ten or more years. Even so however, this Tannat is much rounder and riper than its Madiran counterparts, and has a lushness that comfortably conceals its iron fist inside a lovely velvet glove. Notes of black fruit, tobacco, and leather. Pair with rich meats like beef tenderloin, or strong cheese like blue and parmesan.
