So watch out!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlicante is a grape rarity â€?peel back the red skin and it is one of the few that has red flesh.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCreated by crossing Petit Bouchete and Grenache (and known in Spain as Garnacha Tintorera) the grape was historically used to add colour and depth to simple table wines it is now used for top-end wines that are prized for their weight, dense colour and phenolic content.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vines, planted on clay-limestone soil and exposed in a magnificent setting, were harvested at good maturity and reveal a rich aromatic intensity. For vinification the winemaker has chosen to carry out a hot pre-fermentation maceration, (destemmed and crushed grapes are heated up to 75°C during its 15 hours) to extract the deepest colour and increase aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTasting Notes: The wine is an inky colour. An initial array of aromas jump out from pepper, very ripe black fruits, thyme, fennel and toasted pine nuts. The palate is surprisingly smooth â€?not to heavy â€?with mature tannins and a great intensity of sweet cherry fruit on the palate. Dark chocolate, mocha and nuances of spices tickle the senses. Surprisingly luscious, quirky and very enjoyable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFood pairing suggestions: will go wonderfully with red meats, grilled beef ribs, Mediterranean tapas and cheese platters. It also pairs with pasta, smoked meat and dark chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003csection data-liuqs-content=\"verified-context\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"site-brand-context\"\u003eListed by \u003cstrong\u003eFlowers by Richard NYC | Same Day Flower Delivery NYC\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"site-context-note\"\u003eFree Shipping on All Orders · New Store Launch Deals End in 30 Days!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"verified-product-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVendor:\u003c\/strong\u003e My Store\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTags:\u003c\/strong\u003e Skincare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42988033310805,"sku":"cs_48615","price":1.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/9630\/0117\/files\/be0xledh2m93_95d07f4b-a8ff-4756-bb24-ffde001d46aa.jpg?v=1789284622","url":"https:\/\/willowcreekspirits.com\/products\/lesgrosrougequitache-alicante-syrah-7486lq","provider":"Willow Creekspirits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
