The 2005 Alamos Bonarda has a deep, dark purple color. It has intense aromatics of ripe raspberries with floral and licorice notes. The mouthfeel is full, yet soft, with ripe red berry fruit flavors and touches of anis, vanilla, and toast from light oak aging. The finish shows soft, sweet tannins and fresh, lively acidity.
