Bonarda – Argentina’s Other Famous Red

Bonarda (also known as Douce Noir) has been known for its rich notes and juicy taste, which originally grows in the Piedmont region of Italy; however, its growth expanded to Argentina. The wine grape traces its roots to three thousand years back. Today, Bonarda can be found all across the warm climate sites with cooler night-time temperatures. The full-bodied wine caters notes of cherries, fennel, dried fig, and cassis. The versatile wine is wonderful served with cheese topped dishes, including pizza and baked pasta. The Bonarda grape has a thick skin, which requires consistent heat for ripening. The vines of rich grapes are usually vibrant and therefore have the violet rich color with full-bodied flavor notes and aroma. Bonarda is a full-bodied , especially compared to Malbec, and usually has softer tannins, less intensity and phenolics. The addition of Malbec adds ripe red berries and blackcurrant aromas, with flavors that are long and fresh. Inkarri Wines – for the Future
