Blackberries and black currants aromas are followed by smoked oak and a slightly dry character on the palate. There’s also a tartness here, but that will likely be tempered by a few years in the cellar. Overall, a good wine, especially when paired with food, which should take the edge off of it.

The mouthfeel of this wine is beautiful, with a velvety texture and dusty tannins, and the lingering, coffee-infused finish seals the experience nicely. The attractive aromas and flavors of small red berries, cherry and red plum skins help to make this an easy-drinking choice with pairing flexibility.

Nuances of herbal spice, leather and black currant leaf add depth and complexity to this dark wine, which is otherwise dominated by aromas and flavors of black fruit. Balanced and approachable now with medium fine-grained tannins and a solid finish.

Here’s a gorgeous Bordeaux-style Kosher red blend with 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Petit Verdot and 12% Merlot. Fleshy plum, dark berries and black currant leaf abound in the bouquet, while flavors of pepper and leathery spice add intrigue to the palate. Medium weight in the mouth with a round, lush texture and gripping tannins. Rich and attractive now, though it will certainly hold for another two to five years.

From grapes grown at the Ramal Arad vineyard located 500 meters above sea level. Pale straw in color, this is loaded with bright lime and pineapple notes with flavor accents of fresh cut grass and pear. Closes with an appropriately crisp and clean finish. Only 600 cases produced.

Earthy and dull, a flat, boring wine that features modest fruit and a medicinal note. Imported by Royal Wine Corporation.

Starts off herbal, then adds flavors of black cherries and coffee. This medium-bodied wine is smooth and supple in the mouth, finishing with soft tannins and a tea-like note. Imported by Royal Wine Corporation.

Smooth and velvety in the mouth, with some chewy wood tannins on the finish. Aromas and flavors hint at tobacco and vanilla, with just enough earthy fruit flavors in support. Drink now–2010. Imported by Royal Wine Corporation.

With 18 months in French oak and another 18 months in bottle before release, this is a developed and complex wine with serious cassis and blackberry flavors accented by notes of menthol, tea leaves, cocoa nibs and black currant leaf. Structured and firm with velvety tannins and a long finish, this will continue to develop if cellared.
