If you have never enjoyed a Bonarda wine, it is time to do it!

Today we want to talk about Bonarda grape. Bonarda is derived from the Corbeau Noir variety in France and is the second most planted red variety after Malbec in Argentina. Argentina has already planted more than 18,000 hectares of this variety. It can be said that, given the enormous development it has had in Argentina, this variety deserves the name of "Argentine Bonarda", with its own distinctive characteristics, which have little to do with its French origin.

It is a grape that produces powerful wines with lots of colour and very aromatic, but with softer and more moderate tannins. Its characteristics make it ideal for barrel ageing. In general, Bonarda wines have a moderate alcohol content.

It is a very high yielding grape, so it was used in Argentina for many years to make wines for mass consumption, until the most important winemakers of this country started to see in it a wonderful potential to make single varietal wines.

This vine adapts very well to warm regions, which is why 60% of its plantation is in the province of Mendoza, mainly in the eastern area. In any case, many winegrowers produce their Bonarda wine in areas with different climatic characteristics, achieving also excellent results. In blends or cuvées, Bonarda is the ideal partner for Malbec.

What kind of aromas do Bonarda wines offer? Balsamic, laurel or subtle notes of aniseed. Also blackberries, strawberries, cherries and rose hips.

Argentina is much more than Malbec, and Bonarda is an excellent opportunity to prove it.
