Baco Noir

Baco Noir Reserve Wine Details
Price: $50.00 per bottle

Description: This wine displays a brilliant, dense garnet color with toasty aromas of blackberry and vanilla. It opens with a silky smooth mouthfeel with jammy, brambly berry and plum flavors mingled with sweet toasty oak undertones. Loads of fruit in the mid-palate with a hint of leather. Fine grained tannins are barely perceptible in the long, lingering finish. Excellent with rich and spicy Italian cuisine, or try with a chocolate or berry dessert.

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.
