Tasting- Ksana Bonarda

photo 4Name: Ksana Bonarda
Variety: Bonarda
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina 
Year: 2008
Price: $9.95
Vintage Cellar 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 smelled like cherries with a little tobacco and spice.  This wine was a little hot and too dry for my liking.  I tasted cherries and spice, but do not think this wine was well balanced.  I did not like this wine. 
Food: Not tasted with food
