Quite lovely.
Roses on the nose. Really pretty and perfumed. Almost some really really pretty raspberry liquor. Gorgeous. Mild spice. Like from a spice merchant in the old city of Jerusalem. Beautiful.
Palate is clean precise but juicy Nebbiolo fruit. So sweet and delicious. Some coffee some chocolate.
Tastes like very well made barbaresco. Of course it’s declassified barbaresco so no shock.
Finish has a terrific raspberry liquor. Delicious.
Wow. A wonderful effort
Amazing raspberry liquor on the finish. Omg good.
I thought this would suck given the bad press given the vintage. Even against that preconception it was great.

Full bodied and elegant with medium plus acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with plums, cooked cherries, oak, light vanilla, spices, dark chocolates, coffee, alcohol, peppercorn, wet leaves, vegetables, green herbs, mint, tobacco, spices and earth.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cranberries.
This is a delicious Grenache blend from Israel. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Tasty and good by itself or with food. Tangy and spicy, elegant and rich.
Needs 60 minutes to open up properly.
This 5 year old is drinking very nicely now, and better than last year. Still young and needs 3 more years in the bottle to mature properly.
I paired it with baked Brie cheese and crackers.
A blend of 47% Grenache, 33% Carignan and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged for 12 months in 100% new oak barrels (American, French and Hungarian).
15.5% alcohol by volume.
