Full, deep, luscious fruit, very well balanced. Soft, plush tannins. Just a tad sweet as most Israeli 12's. Glossy oak vanilla yet to be absorbed. Very pure and clean; I'd hope for more complexity, and while this may surface with age, the wine feels too ripe for long aging. For me, at around 60$, this is overpriced.
