Deep, velvety reds with an intense purple colour, showing aromas of blackberry, black plum, violet, cocoa and gentle spice. Round tannins, fleshy palate, peppery length. Star of Cahors AOC (Côt, Auxerrois) in France and the absolute signature of Mendoza, Argentina (Uco Valley, Luján de Cuyo). A French South-West variety that became the Argentine emblem after its post-phylloxera decline.
Central Israel between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, high-altitude vineyards (up to 1,000 m) in the Judean Hills, terra rossa over limestone and tufa, warm days and cool nights. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah are the signature reds: elegant and structured with blackcurrant, blackberry, black cherry, Mediterranean garrigue and a mineral-calcareous hint, balanced tannins. Taut mineral Chardonnay, lively Sauvignon and ample Sémillon as refined whites. Emerging Pinot Noir.
