2019 Taymente Bonarda - Single Bottles

Intense ruby color, with aromas of red fruits with traces of tobacco. Balanced flavour and soft, sweet and elegant tannins.

Produced by the Riglos Estate, a single-estate, high elevation specialist from Valle de Uco, Mendoza. Dario Werthein and Fabian Suffern founded the winery, establishing the "Finca Las Divas" vineyard on rocky soils in Gualtallary, at 4,000 feet elevation, with Paul Hobbs collaborating with winemaker Pulqui Rodriguez and the vineyard team from day one.

The proximity to the Andes Mountains and high elevation creates sunny, cool growing conditions where thick-skinned berries develop high polyphenol levels and rich aromatics while retaining freshness. The resulting, excellently-structured wines carry layers of fruit and herbal aromatics highlighted by lithe minerality, supported by polished tannins.
