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: This wine started with a dark fruit jam that almost reminded me of a homemade grape jam. The flavor was a sweet, spicy almost meaty flavor with a heavy very dry finish. The finish itself made me dislike this wine as it made me have to take a gulp of water, so I would probably not try this wine again.This wine was tasted on its own with no food.
