Galilee
Carmel Winery
A blend of mainly Carignan, with a little Shiraz, Petite Sirah and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Rich cherry red in the glass.
Spicy, cherry, plummy fruit on the nose.
Medium weight, very spicy, currants, cherry, strawberry, fruit-forward and juicy, floral, nicely delicate, tangy, tobacco, tarry.
With time, the wine revealed quite a high degree of acidity, but reamined quite tasty.
Floral, spicy, drying, delicate berry fruit on the long finsh.
A rich and delicious wine. My first from Israel.
Purchased on sale at $14.95 (Canadian), down from an initial release price of $22.95.
