El Enemigo 2019 Bonarda "La Esperanza" 750ml

The 2019 Bonarda Single Vineyard La Esperanza has a bright purple color, denoting youth and freshness, and it's juicy and has a more elegant texture than most of the other single-vineyard Bonarda bottlings. It was produced with grapes from San Martín in the east of Mendoza on deep, sandy and clay soils that seem to deliver great finesse. It has 13.5% alcohol and reveals very good freshness. 7,700 bottles were filled in June 2020 after 12 months in an ancient oak foudre.
