Tasting Notes:
This powerhouse of a wine pours a beautiful and sultry deep, concentrated garnet color. With incredibly high aromatic complexity, this wine has huge body, layers and layers of depth, and incredible structure and acidity. Long on the finish, this is a serious wine with plenty of character and great aging potential.
Pair it with:
Steak or Lamb
Grape Varieties:
The intense smoky-sweet flavors of Alicante Bouschet beg for equally intense foods including barbecue, teriyaki, carne asada and grilled vegetables.
