Tasting - Ksana Bonarda
Variety: 100% Bonarda
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2008
Price: $9.95
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: This wine definitely makes your lips pucker! I really am reluctant to try red wines and this one reminded me why. The wine had a flavor of jam, a high viscosity, and a dryness that just ruined the wine for me.
