Choshen Diamond/Ya'alom Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2019

#KosherWineSunday

Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim, and medium plus intensity.

Fruity nose of black currants, cooked plums, licorice, light wood, tobacco, chocolates and black pepper.

Medium plus in body and elegant, with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with blueberries, blackberries, black plums, cooked cherries, oak, licorice, light vanilla, herbs, tobacco, peppercorn, dark chocolates and light earth.

Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This Israeli Cabernet Sauvignon based blend is drinking beautifully now. Complex and engaging. Fruit forward and elegant. Soft and smooth.

Easy drinking and good right out of the bottle, and better after an hour of airtime.

This 6 year old is delicious right now, and drinking at its peak. Will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.

I had it a 3 years ago, and decided to wait for another 3 years and let it mature. That was a good choice, as it is drinking so much better now.

A great sipping wine. Delicious stuff.

A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 20% Shiraz and 10% Petit Verdot. Grapes are grown in the Galilee region, and aged for 16 months in oak barrels. Kosher and Mevushal.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$100.

Love it! They've been making wine in Galilee for a few thousand years now, so this should be good 👍 😊🕎

The Hoshen Sapphire Sapphire Cabernet Franc Shiraz

Dark fruit and a bit of green pepper on the nose. Reasonably Well balanced- but a a bit harsh on the finish. Not sure but the Shiraz may have added some extra or perhaps too much zing... — 4 years ago

Bin Chardonnay 2020

Wine is delightful especially for a chard. Loads of green grape and apple. Light floral note. Really well balanced, light body for a chard but still a bit of heft. Nice acidity. Would recommend. Balances the food (falafel, muhamara, and hummus) nicely. — 2 years ago

Binyamina & Kadita Cabernet Franc Blend 2016

Solar oaky Cabernet-franc from 🇮🇱 which is expressed here on notes of very ripe fruit. The mouth is fresh with a well-maited alcohol. Balanced, with ageing marked by vanilla. The finish is tannic and persistent. It invokes Bordeaux and southwest. Gastronomic.

Version solaire, fût-de-chêne du Cabernet-franc, 🇮🇱 qui s’exprime ici sur des notes de fruits très mûrs. La bouche est fraîche avec un alcool bien maitrisée. Équilibré, avec un élevage marqué par la vanille. La finale est tannique et rémanente. Ça invoque le bordelais et le sud-ouest. Vin de gastronomie.

Ha'Shomer Marselan Reserve Marselan 2017

#kosherwineSunday

This is an interesting red wine from Israel. This Marselan grape is a crossing of Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache, and it really tastes like it.

Showing black fruits with oak, earth, vegetables, spices, tobacco leaf, chocolates, coffee and peppercorn.

Dry on the palate with a short finish and round tannins.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Needs a couple of hours to open up properly and remove some of the acidity.

Peaking now and will be good in the next few years.

Good by itself or with food. I paired it with cheeses, fresh fruits and vegetables.

100% Marselan grapes were aged in French oak barrels for 16 months. Kosher. Mevushal.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

89 points.
