Cornerstone of the great Médoc estates (Pauillac, Saint-Estèphe, Saint-Julien) and signature of Napa Valley, Coonawarra and Maipo. The world's most planted red variety, a natural cross of Cabernet Franc x Sauvignon Blanc born in Bordeaux.

The wine region of Judean Hills

Qualitative heart of Israeli wine around Jerusalem, the country's first official AO (2020). Dense, structured reds with signature notes of ripe blackcurrant, blackberry, mint, eucalyptus, Mediterranean herbs and spice, firm tannins and freshness tightened by altitude. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in Bordeaux blends. Also peppery Syrah, dense Petit Verdot.

The word of the wine: Maceration

Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration. The juice becomes loaded with colouring matter and tannins, and acquires aromas. For a rosé, the maceration is short so that the colour does not "rise" too much. For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
