Los Haroldos Estate Bonarda

Bodegas Los Haroldos’ Estate Bonarda is a fine example of this native grape. This wine is made from lower yields of Bonarda and spends 6 months in American oak barriques to add complexity and structure. The high altitude vineyards in the Lujan de Cuyo in Mendoza impart character and freshness.

Ruby with violet hues, it shows pure strawberry and blueberry on an enticing nose. The palate brings layers of cinnamon, cherry tobacco and plum, with finely structured tannins for texture. A clean acidity maintains freshness before a long finish displaying blueberry pancakes, sweet smoke and dark fruit. Try this complex wine with rich, warming dishes such as stews, grilled steak, tapas or mature cheeses.

In 1939 a young ‘Don Lolo Falasco’ started selling wines from the front of his bike, but he had ambition, a dream and worked hard. Lolo’s legacy is now in the hands of the third and fourth generation and today ‘Bodega Los Haroldos’ is one of Argentina’s leading family-owned wineries They make fine wines from premium vineyard sites in Mendoza, where they utilise high altitude to impart character and freshness.
