Bual is the English term named after the Portuguese Boal grape. The white wine grape variety refers to a handful of grapes, but it typically refers to the Bual de Madeira grape type. Bual wines are typically sweet wines that are produced from large and sweet grapes. The heaviness and flavor of the Bual grapes make them delicious table grapes. The taste of these grapes is similar to the Sercial variety. The bual grape type is a great place to start if one is trying Madeira wines for the first time. Bual wine is typically aromatic, but is not too sweet. This wine has hints of acidity, which helps balance the sweetness of it. Although it is one of the darkest, if not the darkest of all wines from Madeira, the type is certainly not overpowering and is very palatable. Madeira wines from the Bual variety are usually not as sweet as wine crafted from the Malmsey grape type, but it is sweeter than other grape types. The hints of caramel, apricot, orange, and dried fruits lend Bual a distinct taste. The Bual vines typically grow in regions of Spain and Portugal, but the regions tend to use the variety for fortified wines.

Alejandro Bulgheroni Lithology Cabernet Sauvignon is made from 100 percent Cabernet Sauvignon.
We only produced a scant 50 cases of this wine this year, far too small an amount considering how great it turned out. There’s that typical saturated to the rim deep purple color, with intense cassis, herb, and milk chocolate, bricks and forest floor, black plum pudding aromas. In the mouth, there’s a great balance, with notable oak and vanilla notes intertwined with dense black fruits. It’s an opulent and plush style, yet finishes with sweet grippy tannins.
