La Posta 2006 Estela Armando Vineyard Bonarda (Mendoza)

Country: Argentina / Estela Armando Vineyard
Variety: Bonarda Mendoza Province
Winery: La Posta / Mendoza

A gamy, slightly stemmy and rubbery style of Bonarda that reflects the variety, Mendoza’s terroir and the vineyard. Which doesn’t mean that it’s great; far from it, the wine is good but stemmy, with green-ish notes and reedy accents infiltrating the red-fruit flavors that control the palate. Solid and structured, but still it leaves something to be desired.
