Limited Edition Old Vine Carignan 2019

Shiran Winery Limited Edition Old Vine Carignan 2019, Israel

#kosherwineSunday

Deep purple in color with a purplish rim.

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

Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.

Showing currants, plums, cooked cherries, light oak, licorice, spices, tobacco leaf, chocolates, light black tea, vanilla, black coffee, peppercorn and light earth.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a very tasty Carignan from Israel. Nicely balanced and good right out of the bottle. Fruit forward and elegant.

A good quality wine, and good by itself as a sipping wine.

I had it less than a year ago, and it is drinking much nicer now. Will continue to age nicely in the next few years.

100% Carignan grapes. A tiny production of only two barrels. Aged for 12 months in Hungarian Oak barrels. Kosher and not Mevushal.

14% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$63.

Dry White Sémillon 2019

Bright with well balanced acidity; this Israeli wine has notes of citrus and pear, with underlying richness from four months of aging on spent yeast. Would pair well with grilled fish, cucumber mint salad, or savory blintzes. — 4 years ago
