Tasting - Ksana Bonarda
Name: Ksana Bonarda
Variety: Bonarda (Charbono?)
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.
My Review: This wine was very dry, as the shop noted. What I believe is black currants came through on the taste, helping make the wine dry. You could almost get hints of raspberries when tasting the wine.
With Food? No
