Alicante Bouschet is a red wine grape variety that resulted from a cross between Grenache and Petit Bouschet. It is a thick-skinned and fleshy grape, that was widely grown in the early 20th century. However, in the late 20th century, the consumption of Alicante Bouschet wines reduced and was replaced by the production of international varieties. In the recent years, it re-emerged as modern winemakers started crafting some excellent examples of Alicante Bouschet wines. The varietal flaunts a deep hue, with bold and fruit-forward flavours of blueberry, blackberry and black cherry. It may also reveal spicy and smoky notes along with dark chocolate, vanilla and baking spice nuances. It pairs exceptionally with red meats like roast beef or lamb dishes.
