This Israeli Grenache blend is delicious now.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.
Showing black fruits with light wood, spices, coffee, cola, licorice, light vanilla, black pepper and herbs.
Spicy finish with soft tannins.
I've had a few vintages of this wine and it always delivers.
