Galil Mountain Meron 2018

Blend: 85% Syrah, 10% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon

The winter preceding the growing season was warmer than previous years. As a result, the vine bud break took place earlier than normal, leading to ripening and harvest starting about two weeks early. Temperatures were relatively moderate throughout the growing season with no extreme weather events, enabling uniform and quality ripening. The harvest began at the end of July with Sauvignon Blanc grapes from Yiron Vineyard, and concluded at the end of September with Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from Misgav Am Vineyar.

Undergoing 14-21 days of fermentation on skins at 30ºC (86ºF) and full malolactic fermentation, the wine aged for 16 months in French oak barrels.

Glittering deep purple in color, the wine is rich with characters of blueberry, black cherry and raspberry jam accompanied by chocolate and clove aromas. The full-bodied wine has a velvety texture with a long, elegant finish.

Best served at about 18°. Store in a cold, dark area. If stored under proper conditions, the wine should stay well preserved for 7 years or more from the time of harvest.
