9.0

Yatir is a boutique winery owned by Carmel winery, they produce this in the south Judgean hills at an altitude of 900 meters, the first vintage was 2001, 2005 was just spectacular, this wine is a blend 77% CS , 13% Petit Verdot, 10% Merlot. The color is deep garnet, on the nose black current, cedar, spices, light mint, full body with firm dry tannins, great acidity and a long chewy finish. The wine has matured beautifully over the last decade, and has a few more years left. My score 90, drink to 2019
