This Israeli Grenache blend is delicious now.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.
Showing black fruits with light wood, spices, coffee, cola, licorice, light vanilla, black pepper and herbs.
Spicy finish with soft tannins.
I've had a few vintages of this wine and it always delivers.
Easy drinking and good by itself or with food. Will pair nicely with a lamb dish.

Pretty color of dark ruby, with a wide reddish rim.
Strong nose and fruit forward.
Full bodied, smooth and elegant, with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.
Showing black plums, cooked cherries, currants, oak, light vanilla, spices, dark chocolates, coffee, peppercorn, earth, tobacco leaf and herbs.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
This young red blend is already drinking beautifully. It is full of chocolates and light earth notes. Interesting, rich and good by itself.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Has good potential to become a 94+ point wine.
Needs a couple of hours to open up properly, so be patient.
Drinking it with the winemaker, made it so much more special.
A blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon and 49% Syrah. Kosher and not Mevushal.
14.5% alcohol by volume.

From a magnum bottle.
The cork was challenging, too dry and crumbled on its way out....
A very powerful nose and a full body, tasty, exceptional balanced wine is experienced. — 7 months ago
Third tasting and it reveals itself at its peak in a style that recalls Cornas or a first-class Saint-Joseph: Smoked bacon, animal, crunchy and powerful. Gourmet sensation of residual sugar. Caramel, roasting. Long and refined finish with drying and persistent tannins. Magnificent price/pleasure ratio. 2016 is perfectly balanced.
Troisième dégustation et il se révèle à son apogée dans un style qui rappelle Cornas ou un Saint-Joseph de première classe:
Lard fumé, animal, croquant et puissant. Sensation gourmande de sucre résiduel. Caramel, torréfaction. Finale longue et raffiné e aux tanins asséchants et persistants. Magnifique rapport prix/plaisir. 2016 est parfaitement à l’équilibre. — 10 months ago

This wine has an indigo color in the glass. The nose is full of dark fruit, with blackberry, plum and black currant coming into play. Notes of cigars, leather, white pepper and funky earth make me think the Syrah plays a much larger part than its percentage indicates. The palate has all the black fruit and some ripe, red cherries in addition. The acidity has some zip to it and the tannins are firm enough for brisket. The finish isn’t terribly long, but it holds the fruit flavors for a delicious few minutes. — 24 days ago
