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: On the nose, I sensed berry aromas. I liked the smell a lot. It was very sweet smelling but the taste surprised me. For smelling so sweet this wine was very dry. It made me salivate which always for me means something is sour.
