Kicking it off: Nipozzano Reserve 2018, Chianti Rufina. A really nice variation on a classic Chianti, light and fruit forward but with a surprising amount of tannins - pretty heavily oaked, relative to a Chianti Classico anyway, it was no Knights Valley cab. Exceptionally balanced and highly recommended.

One of my local wine shops has a 2020 Bodega Garzon tannat I am really digging these days. Im new to wine tasting so my notes might be a little off, but heavy tannins (which i love), dark fruits and a little herbal. I bought one, drank it, then went back and bought 3 more and tried to find more Uruguayan tannats. So far Bodega Garzon has been my favorite.
