Nieto Senetiner
Bonarda Limited Edition
Full, rich blue/black fruit with notes
of mocha and chocolate.
100% Bonarda, a grape brought to Argentina by Northern Italian immigrants
in the 19th century. Planted in the very high vineyards
of Argentina’s Andes foothills, Bonarda comes off deeper, richer and more
exotic than its Italian progenitor. This one tastes like a rich,
deep Merlot morphing into Spanish Tempranillo. Awesome. |
