Domaine du Castel 2012 Grand Vin Red (Judean Hills)

Country: Israel / Grand Vin
Variety: Red Blend Judean Hills
Winery: Domaine du Castel /

Inky ruby in the glass, this Bordeaux-style blend has aromas of caramel and anise that all but hide a whiff of cherry. On the tastebuds black cherry is the predominant flavor, backed by a mouth-pleasing chorus of allspice, violet, custard and mint. Grippy tannins coat the mouth yet touches of fruit remain strong on the post-palate.
