Strong, lush and extracted, this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon 60% and shiraz 40%, displays good weight and ample length. The abundant aroma is dusty and woodsy with elements of jasmine tea, sweet cocoa, and bramble.
The grapes for this barrel aged (12 months) of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz mature at a leisurely pace while basking in the warm sun of the Judean Mountains and being gently caressed by the cool maritime breezes from Israel’s mediterranean coastal plain. This ideal climate allows the fruit to reach its entire full potential. Enjoy also the Judean Heights Collection with our Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Chardonnay. Open and decant at least hour prior to drinking.
Experts' comments
Seductive blackcurrant with a strong spicy flavor. The beginning note is creamy with heavy coffee taste. The second note is lined with smoky feeling. This full body Tannin is smooth. It consists of multi-layers of richness. It can be regarded as the perfect combination of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah.
