Known as the "Noir de Noirs" or the "Blackest of the Black", this is one of the few grapes that actually has red juice. A "hybrid" grape created in 1866, Alicante Bouchet was "parented" by Petit Bouchet and Grenache grapes, it was created to have thick hearty skins to resist rot and to darken the color of other wines. With notes of maple syrup on the nose it smells sweet, but finishes with firm tannins. Great with Grilled Steak or Mushroom Risotto! Gold Medal Winner at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair
