Pangloss 2023 Alicante Bouschet, Uboldi Vineyard

Alicante Bouschet is a rare thing in the world of wine: a “teinturier” grape, colored red through to its core, bred over a century and a half ago by French botanist Henri Bouschet for exactly this kind of intensity. Ours grows on some of the oldest vines at Uboldi Vineyard, originally planted in 1910. Expect a wine of real depth with blueberry and dark cherry up front, pepper and spice curling underneath, and a structured, lingering finish that will leave you wanting a second pour.
