Baco Noir

Baco Noir Wine Details
Price: $18.00 per bottle

Description: Displays a brilliant dark garnet color with great legs. Sweet, vibrant aromas of dark fruits, blueberries, strawberry jam, and a little toasted vanilla. Flavors of dark, silky fruits and boysenberry build slowly and then linger on with toasty, spicy flavors in the finish. Incredibly drinkable with a luscious mouth feel. Moderately oaked. Try with pastas, spicy meats, or a chocolate & berry fondue!

Varietal Definition
Baco Noir:
BA french-american hybrid grape used to make an intense red wine regarded by some as a good substitute for Cabernet Sauvignon . Capable of aging, its origins trace to the Folle Blanche and a native American strain of grape. Extensively grown in the cool northern regions of N. America.
