Tasting- Ksana Bonarda

This 2008 Ksana Bonarda is from Mendoza, Argentina, made from Bonarda grapes, and priced at $9.95 a bottle. The Vintage Cellar said, "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". The nose on this wine was thick and full of berry aromas. It was somewhat spicy, very sweet, with splashes of dark berries and a sour finish.
