Secret Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Judean Hills, Israel
#kosherwineSunday
This is a very tasty Cabernet Sauvignon from Israel. Feels like a Napa Cabernet.
Showing black fruits with cedar, vanilla, coffee, cola, spices, earth, chocolates and peppercorn.
Dry on the palate and fruit forward.
Full-bodied and bold with a nice mouthfeel.
Still young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Would Age nicely in the next five to seven years. Has good potential to become a 94+ wine.
Entertaining and engaging. Smooth and elegant.
Aged in French oak barrels for 18 months. Unfiltered. Kosher and Mevushal.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$53.

Dark purple in color with a wide reddish rim.
Fruity on the nose with black currants, black plums, earth, oak, tobacco leaf, dark chocolates, cloves, green pepper, licorice, herbs, spices and black pepper.
Full bodied with medium acidity and nice legs.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, spices, earth, vanilla, eucalyptus, green pepper, licorice, tobacco, chocolates, bitter herbs and peppercorn.
Medium finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon from Israel is very tasty, although still young.
Showing nice complexity with a nice mouthfeel. Feels like a fruit forward Right Bank Bordeaux.
Needs a couple of hours to open up properly and show itself, but good right out of the bottle too, and gets earthier as it opens up.
Would benefit from 3 years of bottle time, but already delicious.
I paired it with cheeses, nuts and dried fruits.

Good Cabernet, a little hot and acidic, but at least it tastes like Cabernet. For Kosher Israeli wine, it’s not bad. If it cost $20’mi wouldn’t complain.

2015 Vintage. Mild appearance with a ruby tawny color. Moderate nose, medium body.
The wine is approachable now/ better after being open for one hour.
