Via Revolucionaria Bonarda Pura Mendoza
Varietal
Bonarda
Notes
VINEYARD: Manuel Pelegrina - a 10 acre plot located at 3,940ft elevation.
VINE AGE: Planted in 1972
SOIL: Sandy
FARMING: Parral trellis system
VINIFICATION: The hand picked grapes are fermented by carbonic maceration with native yeasts, and aged in bottle for 6 months before release.
TASTING NOTES: This 100% Carbonic Macerated Bonarda was harvested separately at 4 different times and then blended together. A seductively perfumed nose evokes blueberry, cherry, and raspberry. The vibrant, fruit dominated nose, leads to a soft and round mid palate, held together by firm tannins and bright acidity.
