Tasting -- Ksana Bonarda


Name: Ksana Bonarda
Variety: Bonarda
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2008
Price: $9.95

Winery Review:  The bouquet is floral and lightly jammy, with berry aromas and a savory note or two. To the uninitiated, this is a great introduction to Bonarda. Finishes solid. Very sweet, berry smell with some rooty undertones. Kind of dry, makes your lips pucker.

My Review: Definitely a floral bouquet. Very strong on the nose. Lots of spice on the palate. Very dominate. Solid berry profiles with well-balanced levels of tannins. 

I did not eat while tasting this wine.
