Winery review: The bouquet is floral and lightly jammy, with berry aromas and a savory note or two. To the uninitiated, this is a great introduction to Bonarda. Finishes solid. Very sweet, berry smell with some rooty undertones. Kind of dry, makes your lips pucker

My review: This wine had aromas of cherry and other fruits.  There were dark cherry, bitter and root/earthly flavors.  It was a decent wine. 

I tasted this wine on its own, without food.
