Don David Tannat 2008, a great Cafayate Valley ´s son


Don David Tannat 2008, By Bodega El Esteco, USD 12

Impressive tannat from Cafayate Valley, Salta Province, NorthWestArgentina.
Dark red and blue brilliant from the beginning. You must enjoy it from the initial swirling.Expressive nose of very ripe blueberries and dark black plums that open up beautifully in the palate.The nice acidity and alcohol round it up. The dark above 70% cocoa chocolate and soft vanilla give good complement. A 90 points red probably best young and strong like before 4 years old. Very good value like Don David´s series used to show off.

Compare 2006 Vintage tasted en May 30th 2010. I dont´t know the reasons why the quality difference.
