Lisboa Alicante Bouschet
Lisboa, Portugal
This Portugese marvel is a very interesting wine. In the glass you see incredibly intense color with deep purple-burgundy edges. Aroma is rich berry with a earthy overtones. The mouthfeel is velvety and there's this interesting along with spiciness. Theres a surprising fruit-forward character backed by richness yet very light tannins. I will need to try this wine with a steak - it has to be excellent.

Densely colored purple with a blue hued core and translucent cranberry rim. Intensely aromatic nose is dominated by violet and rose petal with an undertone of black pepper and cassis. Medium acid, low astringency, a hint of bitterness, medium alcohol 13%. Mouth filling floral perfume violets and tart red berries. Moderate structure, well balanced, medium finish, medium complexity. the aromatics on nose and palate very attractive

GreAt color! Rich heavy taste, especially with barbecue, the taste disappeared when the meal was over but hung on as a great full bodied red. Good standard red..

Deep red full bodied. Intense and silky. Not for everyone. Great to me. Like the black cherry aroma and taste.
