Here's a reserve cab from Israel's Upper Galilee, a region with ideal sun exposure and high altitude to temper the heat. The grapes develop over a long season and take on complex nuances while maintaining balance and delicacy. Aged 12 months in French oak this wine is a 90 point Editors' Choice in Wine Enthusiast Magazine who said "Scents of vanilla bean and crushed violet add interest to the dark-fruit driven bouquet. The firmly structured mouth shows the same depth of flavor, with concentrated notes of boysenberry and cassis that are matched similarly strong earthy elements of black tea leaves and leathery spice."
