2020 Alicante Bouschet

Aged in:

25% new French oak
25% new American oak
50% neutral cooperage

A smaller harvest only yielded us 213 cases of this delectable fan favorite. Alicante Bouschet, which is one of the few red grapes that has red flesh as well as skins (a teinturier grape) created a wine this vintage with a deep garnet hue. Aromas of sweet tobacco, blackberry compote, black pepper and brioche greet the nose-on the palate, the tannins are soft and juicy. Flavors of ripe berries, spice and sweet plum make this a great wine to enjoy on its own or with grilled fare.
