One of 64 items (56% of 116 releases) not presented for evaluation under new LCBO policies. This 2017 REPEAT last appeared in Vintages (**) on November 24, 2018 at $15.95 and was Recommended. Here is my previous note: Very deep purple colour. Slightly spicy, juicy, ripe cherry purée nose with some vanilla-cedar notes. Dry, medium bodied, harmonious, spicy, slightly juicy, very tangy, warm plum-cherry-apple flavours with a crisp, gently cedary, harmonious finish. This 100% Bonarda from Mendoza has 13% alcohol and 3 g/L residual sugar with lot number L1818018181 on the back label |

This alluringly earthy Bonarda shows ripe berry fruit and chocolaty notes. It'll go nicely with mildly spiced bean burritos, or chicken thighs in a mole rosa sauce. |
