2018 | Carmel Winery | Mediterranean (Kosher)

Red-violet in the glass, this wine has a bouquet of cassis, mocha and tobacco. It is very smooth in the mouth, with restrained tannins and flavors of cherry, raspberry, butterscotch, anisette and juniper. The mild finish offers a final note of brightness.

Reviews:

• James Suckling: A beautifully crafted, full-bodied and spicy red with full black-cherry and wild-berry fruit, but also notes of chocolate and dry earth. Well-integrated, fine tannins and a silky finish. A syrah -based blend with carignan, marselan, tannat and petite sirah.

Producer Information

Carmel Winery is a historic Israeli wine producer that was founded in 1882 by Baron Edmond de Rothschild of Château Lafite Rothschild in Pauillac. It is the largest producer in Israel and one of the largest in the eastern Mediterranean, making more than 15 million bottles of wine a year. All of Carmel's wines are Kosher. The estate's vineyard land stretches from the Upper Galilee in the north to Negev in the south, covering around 1400 hectares (3470 acres) of land in total. Carmel grows a wide range of varieties, from red grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan, Shiraz and Merlot to white varieties like Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier. Grapes intended for the estate's largest production wines primarily come from the Shomron wine region in the coastal area south of Haifa, while the estate's single-vineyard and prestige wines are primarily produced with fruit from the Upper Galilee.
