Winemaker Notes
Wow! This is one that you buy by the case to take home to amaze your friends and family. You can drink it tonight and pair with traditional red-friendly foods like hamburgers, steak, ribs and pizza, and grilled or roasted chicken. Great all by itself too!
Bodini is crafted by winemaker Jimena Lopez and showcases fruit grown by a small estate winery in Mendoza, Argentina. Supporting Bodini encourages the tradition of independent, family-run vineyards and helping them express their unique wines. Bodini showcases grapes with the fullest expression of fruit.
A high-elevation desert, Mendoza has long sunny days, cold nights, low humidity, and natural irrigation from glacial snowmelt from the Andes Mountains. Bodini wines are fresh, fruit-forward, and a great introduction to the possibility of Malbec to deliver.?
A portion of all Bodini wine sales are also donated to the Dominio del Plata Scholarship Foundation which was established to help fulfill the dream of a college education to winery worker families throughout Argentina.
Most distinguished and celebrated from Argentina’s Mendoza, Malbec has seen runaway success since the early 2000s. Mendoza’s agreeable, continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold snowy winters allows the perfect conditions for growing outstanding Malbec. This grape is easy to like for its lusty, deep flavors and aromas of blackberry, plum, red cherry, autumn spice and tilled earth. It’s easy to find delicious, fruit-driven, affordable everyday examples and in prices beyond, quite exceptional ones with dense, supple textures that make them capable of aging.
