Hevron Heights's varietal Cabernet Franc - Judean mountain fruit gently cooled by Mediterranean breezes, eighteen months in oak under Michel Murciano's hand.

Mood: The guest who already drinks serious Israeli reds and wants the less-obvious grape. The Shabbos table that wants Cabernet's sibling, not Cabernet.

Our sommelier says
Deep ruby-purple. The nose is classic Cab Franc - ripe red berry, sweet spice, black pepper, with a quiet coffee-and-vanilla layer from eighteen months in oak. The high-elevation Judean fruit slows down ripening, so the fruit reads ripe but never jammy. Full-bodied with the fine-grained tannin Cab Franc gives when it's grown well, finishing peppery and composed. Decant thirty minutes; serve at cool room temperature with serious food.

Tasting notes

Ripe red berry, sweet spice, black pepper, coffee, vanilla. Full body, fine-grained tannin, ripe fruit core, peppery lift. Long, peppery, composed.

Food pairing

T-bone steak, lamb chops, slow-braised brisket, aged hard cheese (after the wait), Yom Tov seudah.
