Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
David Kerr rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

I really liked this wine - and once it opened up - the flavour smoothed out - what fantastic value - excellent with Pizza but I would pair it with a lot of things
This is an amazing value and a crowd-pleasing introduction to the up-and- coming Bonarda varietal. Deep ruby in colour, it features a mix of ripe black fruits, new leather and sweet vanilla aromas and flavours. Dry and medium-bodied with soft tannins and decent length, this would be wonderful with tomato and basil pizza or grilled chorizo sausages. Source: Vintages Wine Panel
