Weinstock Cellar Select Alicante Bouschet 2010

Weinstock's Cellar Select line represents the product of more meticulous grape selection and painstaking attention to detail in the winery. But when you take your first sip of Weinstock Cellar Select Alicante Bouschet, you will agree that winemaker Joe Hurliman's extra effort was well worth it. Alicante Bouschet is a unique red grape that resulted from crossing Grenache with the obscure Petit Bouschet grape, and is known by serious wine drinkers as an under-the-radar gem. Weinstock Cellar Select Alicante Bouschet features an intense red color with rich, jammy berry and vanilla aromas. The palate is firmly structured with notes of violet and pepper complimenting more big fruit. Pair this with grilled sausages, roast beef (especially brisket), or a comfort food classic like meatloaf.
