Product Notes

La Posta Armando Bonarda is an Argentine wine, exuding an opulence unmatched. This Bonarda flaunts a deep violet hue, revealing a soul packed with ripe red fruits, lush figs, and rich blackberries. Its perfect balance of fruit concentration and delicious food-friendly acidity, enhanced by soft tannins and black pepper back notes makes it an immediate favourite. Additionally, the subtle influence of French oak adds hints of toast and vanilla to create a perfectly rounded finish. This wine emerges as an unimpeachable argument for the irresistible allure of Bonarda grape variety, truly encapsulating the spirit of Argentina’s vineyards.

Tasting Notes

Intense ruby color with bright aromas of fresh red and black raspberries, and subtle smoky oak notes. The flavour of freshly-crushed raspberries is echoed on the palate, along with notes of leather, dark chocolate and a touch sandalwood on the finish. Though quite rich and hedonistic, the structure is seamless.

About the Winery

La Posta

Nestled amidst the breath-taking scenery of Argentina, La Posta winery spans a space of tranquillity and exceptional beauty. Unlike your ordinary vineyard, La Posta provides an experience steeped in tradition and love for the classic Latin spirit. Its rich history and adherence to cultivating character-driven wines is intrinsically linked with the agricultural legacy of the local families.

Starting with a simplistic philosophy of focusing on single-vineyard wines, the winery brings the ripe elements of the terrain together with the sensibility and the craft of generations of winemakers, that nurtures every grape to perfection. Using grapes handpicked from the Andean foothills, quality is held paramount, bringing forth vintages that are lauded as bold, robust expressions of Argentinian terroir.

Its vineyards are situated around 3,000 feet above sea level, which provides the ideal cool, dry climate for cultivating the rich flavours associated with its wines. Human hands tend carefully to each process — from pruning and picking to fermenting and bottling. It's an artisanal labour love from seed to sip. A harmonious blend of tradition and modernity, La Posta embodies the true essence of Argentinian viticulture.

True to its community-driven nature, La Posta is committed to supporting local farmers, families and communities. In return, each bottle comes imbued with a sense of community spirit that is distinctly palpable. Through its sustainable practices, passion for nurturing the land comes through in every sip of La Posta wine and it dedicating itself to producing wines that are as kind to the earth as they are delicious.

It's impossible, to truly appreciate a bottle of La Posta wine without acknowledging the terroir, the experienced farmers, and the love for an age-old tradition that brought it forth from nature’s, ample bosom. La Posta is not just a winery, it's a testament to the human capability to create something beautiful, something lasting, and something that brings joy into our lives with each sip.
