Covenant Wines
Neshama Sonoma County Proprietary Red
Sonoma County, California, USA
Dark ruby in color with a short purple rim.
Fruity nose of blackberries, blueberries, cherries, licorice, oak, vanilla, chocolates, spices, peppercorn, light vegetables and pencil lead.
Full bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with plums, cherries, currants, oak, vanilla, licorice, cloves, spices, chocolates, tobacco, coffee, peppercorn and pencil lead.
Medium plus on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy pomegranates.
This is a great, Petit Verdot based, red blend from Sonoma County. Nicely balanced and enjoyable by itself or with food.
Good right out of the bottle and better as it opens up, with nice complexity and a great mouthfeel.
Drinking nicely now, and will age nicely in the next 5 years. I had it a year ago and it is drinking better now.
A blend of 60% Petit Verdot, 30% Malbec and 10% Syrah. Kosher. Not Mevushal.
14.4% alcohol by volume.

Dark ruby in color with a purple rim.
Fruity nose of blackberries, blueberries, cherries, licorice, oak, vanilla, light earth and black pepper.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity and nice legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet cherries, wood, licorice, spices, earth, peppercorn and vanilla.
Nice finish with grippy tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a nice surprise. A kosher wine from Sonoma County, that is very enjoyable. Well balanced with a great mouthfeel. Spicy with mild complexity. A nice red blend.
Needs an hour to open up properly and show the big tannins. Could use a few more years in the bottle to mature, but good right out of the bottle.
Good by itself or with food. I had it by itself paired with a great view.
