Terra d’Alter Alicante Bouschet Vinho Regional Alentejano, Portugal

Terra d’Alter Alicante Bouschet is een krachtige rode wijn uit Alentejo, gemaakt van een druif die bekendstaat om zijn diepe kleur, stevige structuur en donkere fruitexpressie. De druiven worden laat geoogst, zodat de tannines volledig rijp kunnen worden voordat de wijn zijn lange opvoeding krijgt. Door de combinatie van klei, schist, lange maceratie en 14 maanden houtrijping ontstaat een volle Portugese rode wijn met zwart fruit, kruidigheid, chocolade en vanille.

Wijngaarden en regio

Deze wijn komt uit Vinho Regional Alentejano, in het zuiden van Portugal.

Ligging / Herkomst: Terra d’Alter werkt in de Alto Alentejo, rond Fronteira, een deel van Alentejo waar het warme klimaat goed past bij rode druiven met veel kleur en concentratie.

Regio: Vinho Regional Alentejano geeft wijnmakers ruimte om Alicante Bouschet als single varietal neer te zetten, met duidelijke nadruk op druif, structuur en regionale herkomst.

Bodem: De druiven groeien op klei en schist. Klei helpt de wijnstok aan waterreserves in droge periodes, terwijl schist warmte vasthoudt en bijdraagt aan rijpe, geconcentreerde druiven.

Wijngaard & Oogst: De Alicante Bouschet wordt zo laat mogelijk geoogst om de rijkdom van de tannines en de diepe fruitconcentratie volledig te ontwikkelen.

Vinificatie en rijping

De vinificatie is gericht op kleur, diepte en een rijke tanninestructuur.

Vergisting: De wijn ondergaat een lange maceratie. Wat is maceratie? Dat is de periode waarin sap en schillen samen in contact blijven, waardoor kleur, tannines en aroma’s uit de druivenschillen worden gehaald.

Rijping / Houtopvoeding: De wijn rijpt 14 maanden op vat. Die opvoeding rondt de krachtige structuur af en voegt tonen van vanille en chocolade toe aan het donkere fruit.

Alcoholpercentage: Met 14,5% alcohol heeft deze Alicante Bouschet voldoende kracht om de rijke fruitconcentratie en de houtrijping mooi te dragen.

Druivensamenstelling

Deze rode Alentejo wijn draait volledig om Alicante Bouschet.

Alicante Bouschet – Vinho Regional Alentejano: Alicante Bouschet geeft deze wijn zijn diepe kleur, zwarte fruittonen, kruidigheid en stevige tanninestructuur. De druif is bijzonder omdat ze niet alleen een donkere schil heeft, maar ook gekleurd vruchtvlees, wat de intense kleur van de wijn verklaart.

Proefnotities en serveertips

Diep donkerrood in het glas, met intense tonen van zwart fruit, specerijen en florale nuances. In de smaak komen verse en gedroogde pruimen samen met levendige zuren, rijke zijdeachtige tannines en veel structuur. De afdronk is lang en aangenaam, met tonen van chocolade en vanille.

Serveertemperatuur: Serveer deze Alicante Bouschet op 16–18 °C, zodat het donkere fruit, de kruidigheid en de zachte houttonen mooi samenkomen.

Gerechten: Mooi bij lamskoteletten, kalfsvlees, gegrild rundvlees, wildgerechten en stoofschotels met kruidige sauzen.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."
