Upper Galilee, Galilee, Israel
Carmel Winery Kayoumi Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2006, Israel
It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Ruby in color with a reddish rim.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing red and black fruits with wood, vegetables, spices, tobacco leaf, dark coffee, dark chocolates and earth.
Medium finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Israel. Fruit forward, elegant and rich.
This 17 year old is still drinking very nicely now, although will not last long. Was probably even better a few years ago.
Good right out of the bottle, and started declining after 90 minutes of airtime.
Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged in oak barrels for 14 months. Kosher and not Mevushal.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.

Didn't do a lot for me. Pretty simple.
