Golan Heights Winery, Yarden Cabernet Sauvignon, Golan Heights

This was excellent. Still has some life left. Drink by the end of 2022 if stored well

Feels like it’s fully mature. Drink now

Fantastic; glad I waited.

Golan Heights Winery tasting (Wine-Route, Hashalom Rd branch) : dark translucent red-purple dark fruits nose with spicy notes, soft firm tannins, medium structured, rich dark fruity flavours, bitter-sweet chocolate, mint, eucalyptus, enjoyable finish

Left over from last year. Still a great wine. Dark black cherry. Long finish. Soft tannins. Very drinkable! Paired nicely with cumin encrusted lamb chops.

This is a bit of a fruit bomb, but is supported by a nice herbal spine that makes this a ton of fun to drink. Don't expect something too sophisticated, but worth the price of admission.

Pretty good for Passover. Was good to lay it down for a year

very young, give it some time

Getting there but still not quite at peak. roasted coffee bean aroma, berry flavor.

Aromas of mint, red currants, plum and herbs. Medium tannins with a lovely mix of red and black fruit on the palate. Long finish. Guessed CA Cab Sauv/Franc blend.

Dark concentrated red color that shows day bright reflections, moderate viscosity and moderate concentration. After decant aromas present with blackberries, currant, bay leaf, thyme, bramble, fluel de sel, olive, spices and cherry pie. On the palate terror driven flavors of cherry, blackberry, currant, mint, herbs, bramble, brined olives, cola, plum and vanilla extract. Acidity is focused and crisp, tannins are moderate and well integrated, the finish is medium-plus in intensity in length and intensity.

dark red-purple fine fruity aroma med-full bodied, medium balance, acidity, lacks some character compared to the classical Yarden CS, more lean and less complex. can age 3-6 years more.

(blind tasting on) Elections day at Wine-Route, Tel-Aviv (Wine-Route, Tel-Aviv) : intense, fruity, round tannins, quite mature, well balanced, good harmony, enjoyable already now.

dark red-purple subtle fruity aroma med body/harmony/tannins/bitterness, relatively mild & flat, lacks the usual complexity, weaker structure compared to previous vintages. Less than expectations - most likely due to the vintage.
