Close to Montevideo and Buenos Aires, across the Rio de la Plate, Bodega Terrazul creates fine Tannat and Sauvignon Blanc wines
With its strong agricultural tradition and temperate South Atlantic climate, the country is naturally suitable for wine cultivation
The first vines were brought to Uruguay by Spanish settlers in the XVII century.
During the second half of the 19thcentury, Pascual Harraigue, travelling from the Basque Country, brought the Tannat grape, which is now the flagship of Uruguayan wine.
This particular grape offers powerful tannic wines.
Average temperature is 16°C with highly pronounced seasons. Cold winters, hot summers and important temperature variations between daytime and nighttime during the harvest period enhance the wine quality.
With a 30 ha vineyard located one hour from Montevideo, the Terrazul team, led by the French œnologist Didier Cornillon, is firmly rooted in the local landscape. In addition to clay and highly organic soils, the Terrazul vineyard benefits from the hilly local landscape which offers the natural drainage conditions which are so essential for the vines’ quality.
Close to Montevideo, Libertad sits on the 34th Parallel South, which puts the Terrazul vineyard on the same latitude as the best New World wine areas such as Argentina, Chile and Australia.
Furthermore, Terrazul’s proximity to the Rio De la Plata estuary enables it to benefit from the cooling Atlantic winds
