Tasting - "Ksana Bonarda"

Name: Ksana Bonarda
Variety: 100% Bonarda
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2008
Price: $9.95
Shop/wine critic/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.
Your review: This wine was a dark red/purple in color and had a fruity and oaky smell. It had a very oaky flavor that really hit the back of my mouth. I gave this wine one star. I really wasn't impressed by this wine. 
Did not have food with the wine.
