Byblos Dry Bonarda
Fresh, Fruity Earthy

Winery Story

Nestled in the foothills of the Andes Mountains in Western Argentina’s Mendoza Province is Argentina’s only full-time kosher winery, Pri... (more...)bokaar, producers of Byblos Wines. The variety of soil types and micro-climates allows for the cultivation of grapes that are unique in their style and character. In the very Northwest part of Mendoza lies the Lujan de Cuyo appellation, considered the premier appellation within Mendoza, which in itself is regarded as Argentina’s best wine region. Lujan de Cuyo’s soil is very clay-like on the surface with great water-retention capacity without salinity issues and good irrigation from the crystal clear waters of the summer thawing of the glacial Mendoza River which starts high in the Andes.

Tasting Note

Byblos Semi-Sweet and Dry Bonardas are well known in the U.S. for their popular prices and deep pungency on the palate. Bonarda is an Italia... (more...)n grape varietal that was transported to Argentina by Italian immigrants in the 19th Century. Bonarda is a rich, fruity grape – dry, it will remind you of a cross between Shiraz and Chianti - very original. The Dry Bonarda is perfect with beef, veal, poultry or lamb dishes of any kind. If you love Italian or South American wines, you'll really like the dry Bonarda. 2004 vintage in stores now.
