Tasting - Ksana Bonarda

Date of Tasting: April 18th, 2013
Name: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.

 My Review: On the nose, this wine had floral notes. On my palate, I was able to detect some earthy flavor as well as some berry flavors. This wine was also very dry. I did not particularly care for this wine.
