Tasting - Ksana Bonarda


Ksana Bonarda
Variety:  Bonarda
Region:  Mendoza
Country:  Argentina
Year:  2008
Price:  $9.95
Shop 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.
Personal Review:  Smells rich and intoxicating.  Taste, finish, and aftertaste is dry.  First get some fruit (berry?) but then upon a second smell, kind of smells of old jam.
Food Paring:  not tasted with food
