Probably one of the best value easy drinking red wines in the UK.
And its claimed that Argentinians drink more Bonarda than Malbec!
100% Bonarda prime grapes from Aranwa's vineyards in Maipú, Mendoza province. They were handpicked during the first week of April with the aim of preserving the purity of the natural aroma. 20% of this wine has been aged for 2 months in American oak barrels to give it a hint of vanilla and spices. A great wine with a strong personality, well integrated acidity, and round tannins.
Aranwa Bonarda
Type: Red
Grape: Bonarda
Year: 2020
ABV: 13.5%
Region: Maipú, Mendoza
Food: Red meats, particulary lamb, are ideal with this Bonarda and most roasted vegetables either oven baked or BBQed. Portobello mushroom burgers, rich BBQ sauces, medium to strong blue or hard cheeses all work with the acidity and smooth finish.
Tasting Notes: This is a well balanced dry wine with smooth tannins and medium to high acidity. A lively morello red colour with a fruity nose including ripe plum and cherry jam touched off with fine herbs and red fruit taste to the finish.
