Carmel Cabernet Sauvignon (75cl)

Carmel Cabernet Sauvignon is a kosher red wine made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon in Israel's Upper Galilee. It is produced by Carmel Winery, founded in 1882, and undergoes extended fermentation with prolonged skin contact before ageing for 12 months in French oak barrels. It is neither fined nor fine-filtered, with only coarse filtration before bottling. The nose shows ripe black cherry and rose petal, with vanilla, toasted oak and soft baking spice. The palate is fruit-forward, with cherry pie, blackcurrant, blueberry and eucalyptus, soft tannins and a gentle mint note. The finish carries zippy cranberry-pomegranate acidity with lingering berry fruit and subtle oak warmth.
