Los Haroldos Estate Bonarda 2020

In 1939, a young entrepreneur named ‘Don Lolo Falasco’ began peddling wines from the front of his bicycle, propelled by ambition, dreams, and relentless hard work. Today, Lolo’s enduring legacy thrives in the capable hands of the third and fourth generations. ‘Bodega Los Haroldos’ stands tall as one of Argentina’s premier family-owned wineries, nestled in Mendoza, they craft exceptional wines sourced from esteemed vineyard sites, leveraging the region's high altitudes to infuse their creations with character and freshness.

Among their stellar offerings is the Bodegas Los Haroldos' Estate Bonarda, a testament to the richness of Argentina's native grape. This wine, meticulously crafted from select Bonarda vines, undergoes a gentle aging process of 6 months in American oak barriques, enhancing its complexity and structural integrity. Cultivated in the high-altitude vineyards of Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza, it exudes a distinctive character and vibrant freshness.

Radiant ruby with violet undertones, it entices the senses with pure aromas of ripe strawberry and blueberry. The palate unfolds with layers of cinnamon-spiced cherry, hints of tobacco, and succulent plum, supported by finely woven tannins that lend texture and depth. A crisp acidity invigorates the palate, leading to a lingering finish that reveals notes of blueberry pancakes, sweet smoke, and luscious dark fruit.

Pair this intricately crafted wine with hearty, warming dishes such as rich stews, succulent grilled steak, flavourful tapas, or aged cheeses.
