Marquee Artisan Wines

This wine combines blueberry and cherry with hints of fig & milk chocolate. It feels sweet, but crisp, and has a long, subtle finish with well integrated tannins.

Rich berry aromas are combined with an understated earthy and spicy tone. A hint of cherry cola can be found in this intriguing red wine!

This single vineyard wine was 100% organically grown at over 3000 ft. above sea level in Mendoza, Argentina on the Caligiore Organic Vineyards. The origin of Bonarda in Argentina is a subject of disagreement, some say it hails from Italy & others feel it is the Charbono grape from California... whatever the case, it has found its home in Mendoza & is the second most planted red grape in Argentina. This wine shows power with elegance & light tannins. Somewhere between a fruity Merlot and a spicy Red Zin, this red wine is packed full of flavor! Partial French & American Oak Aging for 8 months.

Mendoza, Argentina is the home of South America’s most recognized wine region capturing the essence of warm days and cool nights in the Central Mendoza region where Caligiore is committed to organic viticulture. The high elevation vineyards stress the vines to push for optimum ripeness.
