Yarden Galile Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

The first sip of Yarden Galilee Cabernet Sauvignon envelops you in a tapestry of ripe blackcurrant, sun-warmed plum, and subtle cedar, instantly transporting you to the rolling vineyards of Israel’s Upper Galilee. With an alcohol by volume of 14.50%, this expressive red wine showcases the region’s unique terroir through its deep garnet hue and layered aromas of blackberry, tobacco leaf, and a hint of dark chocolate. Crafted from meticulously selected Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, it offers a full-bodied palate with polished tannins and a lingering finish that beautifully complements roasted lamb or sharp aged cheddar. Each glass is an invitation to savor both tradition and innovation in Israeli winemaking.
