The Bonarda Piemontese varietal is a red wine grape that originates from the Piedmont region in northwestern Italy. This grape is not to be confused with the Bonarda grape used in Argentina, which is actually a different variety.
Bonarda Piemontese is often characterized by low tannin levels, bright acidity, and vibrant berry flavors. Its wines typically feature raspberry and cherry notes along with subtle floral undertones. In its homeland, this varietal is often used in blends for added color and fruitiness, but varietal wines can also showcase its unique qualities well.
When aged, Bonarda Piemontese can develop earthier undertones, complimenting its fruit-forward profile. Wines from this grape are typically medium-bodied and somewhat aromatic, making them versatile options for food pairings, particularly with traditional Italian cuisine.
The acreage of Bonarda Piemontese is quite small and it is not widely known outside of Italy, making wines made from this grape somewhat of a rarity in the global wine market. However, those who enjoy lively and fruit-forward wines will find much to appreciate in Bonarda Piemontese.
