Art and Wine Come Together in Montevideo

Tannat is a red wine grape, historically grown in South West France in the Madiran AOC, and is now one of the most prominent grapes in Uruguay, where it is considered the "national grape". It also gives name to Rincón del Tannat, which is Dufry´s subsidiary Duty Free Uruguay wine specialized store in Montevideo Carrasco Airport.

The store, which specializes in the sale of Uruguayan wines and oils, hosted a very special event in February with the local winery Familia Deicas and Uruguayan artist Natalia Perelló. Art and wine came together with an exclusive selection of wines boxes painted by hand by the artist, who illustrated typical motifs of Uruguay in bright colors. Art pieces that can still be visited and acquired in the store. Cheers!
