Top Notes For
"Odedi"

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.

92 points.

$150.

#kosherwineSunday, and for Father's day, here is a beautiful red to celebrate.

Dark inky in color with a short brick/ purple rim.

Great nose of blackberries, blackcurrants, black plums, cherries, figs, vanilla, oak, eucalyptus, light alcohol, earth, leather, coke, chocolates, tobacco and herbs.

Full bodied and smooth, with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate and fruity, with blueberries, black currants, chocolates, tobacco, cedar, leather, vanilla, licorice, spices, light vegetables, pencil lead, black pepper and earth.

Medium finish with soft tannins and spices.

This is a great Cabernet blend from Israel. Showing great complexity and a smooth, soft mouthfeel.

Tasty and fruit forward, without being overwhelming. Gentle and elegant. Spicy finish makes it interesting.

Feels like a high quality Washington State Cabernet based Bordeaux blend, just to give you a reference.

I've had it before (a different vintage), but it was way too young. This 6 year old is drinking very nicely now.

A good quality wine and delicious.
Thank you Sharon, for sharing this with me.

I paired it with 3 different Brie cheese and crackers.

A blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon and 45% Syrah. Grapes were sourced from a north-facing plot, on Terra-Rosa soil. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. Kosher. Not Mevushal.

15% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$100 (current vintage).

Dark ruby in color with a red rim.

Fruity on the nose with blackberries, blueberries, vanilla, cloves, oak, wildflowers, barnyard, cherries, red currants and black pepper.

Medium plus in body with high acidity.

Fruity on the palate with tart cherries, strawberries, currants, oak, earth, plums and black pepper.

Medium finish with green, bitter tannins and peppercorn.

This red blend from Israel is still young and unbalanced, but will be better in 3 years from now. Much Better with food.

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. The vineyard was planted in Stony soil, on the slopes of the Judean mountains.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Lovely Bordeaux blend from Israel. Elegant and refined. At eight years of age this is reaching a good droning window.
