Yarden Galilee Cabernet Sauvignon

Soft tannins and pleasant mouth feel. A very nice warm climate Cabernet Sauvignon showing softness on the nose and palate with a medium finish.

Celebrating with the family, as my daughter gets her Taekwondo black belt 3rd Dan, with this wonderful Cabernet Sauvignon. How exciting!
Deep inky in color with a purplish rim.
Beautiful fruity nose of blackberries, wild flowers, blueberries, currants, cherries, licorice, oak, vanilla, alcohol, spices, chocolates, smoke, peppermint, light coffee, mocha, earth and light black pepper.
Full bodied, smooth and elegant with medium acidity and long long legs.
Fruity on the palate with blackberries, cherries, black currants, oak, vanilla, licorice, earth, spices, peppercorn, chocolates, tobacco, herbs and black pepper.
Long finish with soft tannins, spices and black pepper.
What a great Israeli Cabernet Sauvignon. Extremely Balanced, rich and concentrated.
Enjoyable by itself or with food. Complex, interesting and a great sipping wine.
Good right out of the bottle and better after 2 hours. As it opens up, some vegetables come on the nose.
Can be much better in the next 5 to 10 years, but so good now.
Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. Kosher, and available in the US.
15% alcohol by volume.

Deep, deep purple / Inky in color with a dark purple rim. Still Shows a very young age.
The nose is very distinctive to an Israeli Cabernet.
Beautiful and soft nose of blueberries, blackberries, black currants, earth, leather, licorice, mocha, smoke, vanilla, oak, toast, spices and peppercorn.
Full-bodied, smooth and elegant, with an awesome mouthfeel, medium acidity and long running legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with ripe black berries, cherries, tobacco, blueberries, black currants, earth, chocolates, sweet raisins, spices and peppercorn.
Long fruity finish with round, soft tannins and spices.
What an amazing Cabernet Sauvignon from Israel. Elegant, smooth, refreshing and Well-balanced. Drinkable by itself or with a big piece of steak. Good now, and would be good in the next 8 years, depending on the level of tannins you prefer.
Very enjoyable and complex. What a treat. Needs 1 hour to properly open up.
High in alcohol, but not noticeable at all. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. Grapes grown in the Golan Heights, on rocky, volcanic soils.

Fruit is ripe and dark but not sweet. Wood tannins are dusty. Nice wine, no pyrazine qualities
