Tasted by: Sylvia Wu
(at Israeli wine tasting, London, 24 Jul 2019)
Drinking Window: 2019 - 2029
It has a nose of smoked, pepper spiced ripe strawberry and red cherry fruits with the mineral and herbal scents that hint Cabernet Franc. The palate has fresh acids, while ripe and fine tannins are wrapped by plenty of black and red berry fruits, decorated by dark chocolate, liquorice and dried mints, which follow to the long finish.
