Serie A Santa Rosa Bonarda 2023

One of my favorite wines to have with basic pasta with tomato sauces (with or without meat) is Argentine Bonarda. Unfortunately we’re overrun with effing Malbec and Bonarda remains hard to find in the states, even though it’s widely grown in Argentina. This has the classic dark, purply color. Tangy dark mountain berries, crushed rocks, and bitter herbs on the nose. A blast of flavor initially, fading quickly into lingering minerals and acids. (A flavor profile that just works with the aforementioned pasta.). Cheap and good. Glad I stumbled on this. (Not sure why @Delectable Wine published my notes a second time as a comment 🤷) — 8 days ago

Let it breathe, and you’re rewarded with a berry forward wine, i find it more medium bodied vs full. Nice sipper, may want something bigger with beef — 2 months ago

Hmmm, of course I had expected more from a 11 year old bottle full of mountain minerality and bright fruit. It did have all that but it didn’t get out of the chorus and not much more was revealed.

Poligonos del Valle de Uco San Pablo Malbec

Exotic Malbec. Medium bodied with more red fruits and savory. If you had blinded me and said it was some odd, cab franc+syrah. Id have believed you. Very good. — a month ago

Poligonos del Valle de Uco San Pablo Cabernet Franc

I love this wine! It had a wonderful taught quality with attention between its bright fruit, it’s acidity it’s light and nimble mouth feel and its balance of power and finesse. We had it with lamb chops, and it was totally slapping. — 15 days ago
