Herdade Do Rocim Alicante Bouschet 2014
Alentejano, Portugal
$23.75 / each
Description:
This organically grown bottling is made of the grape Alicante Bouschet, which found its home in the Alentejo region of Portugal in the 1890s. Taut and sleek, this foot-trodden wine boasts a gorgeous purple hue and shows a luscious palate full of crushed blackberries and black raspberries. This is zippy, vibrant, mouth-watering stuff that was bottled unfined and unfiltered by Herdade Do Rocim, one of Alentejo's top producers of natural wine.
