Bold, structured, and unapologetically expressive, Tannat is a red wine that rewards patience and curiosity.
Originally from southwest France but finding a confident voice in Australia, Tannat is known for its deep colour, firm tannins, and savoury intensity. Expect dark fruits like blackberry and plum, layered with notes of spice, cocoa, dried herbs, and earthy undertones. When handled well, Australian Tannat balances its natural power with freshness, texture, and a long, satisfying finish. This is a wine that speaks to craft and intent. It is not about softness or ease, but about depth, structure, and the way time in bottle can transform something robust into something quietly refined.
Food Pairing
Tannat’s firm structure and dark fruit depth make it a natural match for slow cooked beef, grilled lamb, or richly spiced barbecue dishes. It pairs especially well with game meats, earthy mushroom dishes, and aged hard cheeses, where its tannins cut through richness and enhance savoury flavours.
