It is one of the few <i>teinturier</i> grapes that belong to the <i><a href="/wiki/Vitis_vinifera" title="Vitis vinifera">Vitis vinifera</a></i> species. Its deep colour makes it useful for blending with light red wine. It was planted heavily during <a href="/wiki/Prohibition_in_the_United_States" title="Prohibition in the United States">Prohibition</a> in <a href="/wiki/California" title="California">California</a> for export to the <a href="/wiki/East_Coast_of_the_United_States" title="East Coast of the United States">East Coast</a>. Its thick skin made it resistant to rot during the transportation process. The intense red color was also helpful for stretching the wine during prohibition, as it could be diluted without detracting from the appearance. At the turn of the 21st century, Alicante Bouschet was the 12th most planted red wine grape in France with sizable plantings in the <a href="/wiki/Languedoc_wine" class="mw-redirect" title="Languedoc wine">Languedoc</a>, <a href="/wiki/Provence" title="Provence">Provence</a> and <a href="/wiki/Cognac,_France" title="Cognac, France">Cognac</a> regions.<sup id="cite_ref-Oxford_pg_13_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Oxford_pg_13-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1958, Alicante Bouschet covered 24,168 hectares (mainly across southern France); by 2011, plantings represented less than 4,000 hectares. This scenario is largely reversed in other regions of Europe, and in southern Portugal, where its wines are highly prized and frequently outscore traditional autochthonous varieties. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History_and_breeding">History and breeding</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Alicante_Bouschet&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History and breeding"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The grape was first cultivated in France in 1866 by <a href="/wiki/Henri_Bouschet" title="Henri Bouschet">Henri Bouschet</a> as a <a href="/wiki/Cross_(wine)" class="mw-redirect" title="Cross (wine)">cross</a> of <a href="/wiki/Petit_Bouschet" title="Petit Bouschet">Petit Bouschet</a> and <a href="/wiki/Grenache" title="Grenache">Grenache</a>. The Petit Bouschet grape was created by his father Louis Bouschet. The result was to produce a grape with deep color and of higher quality than the Teinturier du Cher. Several varieties of Alicante Bouschet were produced of varying quality. The grape's high <a href="/wiki/Crop_yield" title="Crop yield">yields</a> and easy maintenance encouraged its popularity among <a href="/wiki/French_wine" title="French wine">French wine</a> growers, especially in the years following the <a href="/wiki/Great_French_Wine_Blight" title="Great French Wine Blight">Phylloxera epidemic</a>. By the end of the 19th century there were Alicante Bouschet plantings in <a href="/wiki/Bordeaux_wine" title="Bordeaux wine">Bordeaux</a>, <a href="/wiki/Burgundy_wine" title="Burgundy wine">Burgundy</a>, <a href="/wiki/Loire_Valley_(wine)" title="Loire Valley (wine)">Loire Valley</a> and <a href="/wiki/Alentejo_wine" title="Alentejo wine">Alentejo</a>, Portugal </p><p>The grape was widely popular in the United States during the years of <a href="/wiki/Prohibition" title="Prohibition">Prohibition</a>. Grape growers in California's <a href="/wiki/Central_Valley_(California)" title="Central Valley (California)">Central Valley</a> found that its pulp was so fleshy and juicy that <a href="/wiki/Fermentation_(wine)" class="mw-redirect" title="Fermentation (wine)">fermentable</a> juice could be retrieved even after the third <a href="/wiki/Pressing_(wine)" title="Pressing (wine)">pressing</a>. In contrast, wines made from grapes like <a href="/wiki/Chardonnay" title="Chardonnay">Chardonnay</a> and <a href="/wiki/Merlot" title="Merlot">Merlot</a> typically only include the juice from the free run (before pressing) and first or second pressing. The grape's thick skin also meant that it could survive the long railway transportation from California to <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Pennsylvania_Station_(New_York_City)" class="mw-redirect" title="Pennsylvania Station (New York City)">Pennsylvania Station</a> which had auction rooms where the grapes were sold. </p><p>The superior transportability of this variety was significant because of a ruling by the <a href="/wiki/Internal_Revenue_Service" title="Internal Revenue Service">Internal Revenue Service</a> on July 25, 1920, in connection with original wording in the <a href="/wiki/Volstead_Act" title="Volstead Act">Volstead Act</a>, which allowed up to 200 gallons of home-made wine per year, per household, for consumption in the home only. In 1928, one single auction lot of 225 <a href="/wiki/Railroad_car" title="Railroad car">carloads</a> of grapes were purchased by a single buyer. The amount of grapes was enough to make more than 2,000,000 US gallons (7,600,000 L) of wine.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Wine_regions">Wine regions</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Alicante_Bouschet&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Wine regions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:LocalRegiaoAlentejo.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/44/LocalRegiaoAlentejo.svg/220px-LocalRegiaoAlentejo.svg.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="322" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/44/LocalRegiaoAlentejo.svg/330px-LocalRegiaoAlentejo.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/44/LocalRegiaoAlentejo.svg/440px-LocalRegiaoAlentejo.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="750" /></a><figcaption>In Portugal's <a href="/wiki/Alentejo" title="Alentejo">Alentejo</a> region, Alicante Bouschet is often made into a varietal wine.</figcaption></figure> <p>In France, the grape was historically a blending partner with Aramon but in recent times has been made more into its own <a href="/wiki/Varietal" title="Varietal">varietal</a>.
