The aromatics are impressive, with orange blossoms, sliced oranges and black fruit. Hints of tar with some minerals, fresh spices and chiles. Medium-bodied with very fine tannins that run the length of the wine. They are polished and curated. Chewy at the end but there's a finesse, tension and focus. 42% tannat, 39% cabernet franc and 19% petit verdot. Drinkable now, but better from 2027 [into the early 2030s.]. Score - 96.

Plenty of pencil shavings, dark fruit and blackberries follow through to a medium body, with a tight and focused palate and a long and flavorful finish. Reserved and polished.

Albari帽o is the flagship white wine for Garz贸n and was actually the first variety planted on the property. The grape thrives in Maldonado, where the region's soil and its proximity to the sea are similar to those of Albari帽o's home in Spain's Galicia region. The wine offers lovely stone fruit with a mineral undertone.
