2005 Amaicha Bonarda
Price: $1.99 @ Trader Joe’s imported by Goldschmidt Vineyards
What They Said:
Per Trader Joe’s Fearless Flyer from October of 2006; “Amaicha wines are named after a small village in the northern Argentinean province of Tucuman. “The indigenous people of this town have a special reverence for what they call Pachamama, or Mother Earth, and they celebrate their admiration for the earth’s goodness with both festivals and a way of life that respects the elements around them - Earth, Moon, Sun & Water. That respect extends to the cultivation of the grapes that are used to create Amaicha wines.”
Amaicha Bonarda “is a red wine that originates in Italy, but is actually the most widely grown grape in Argentina. It produces a lush, medium-bodied wine with ripe plum and blackberry flavors. This one’s terrific for cocktails and equally appropriate for serving with pasta or even meatloaf.”
What I Think:
This Bonarda is the current mainstay in our house. So with Mac & Cheese on the stove I grabbed a bottle. I honestly don’t remember all that much about it which at this price point, $1.99, I tend to think of as a good thing…
