Domaine Du Castel Grand Vin with Gift Box 2016

Description

Castel Grand Vin 2012 is produced by Domaine du Castel, an Estate West of Jerusalem with vineyards at an altitude of 2,400 feet. The wine is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot and is aged 24 months in new French oak barrels. It is full-bodied, bold, complex, and is layered with earthy and oakey aromas with fruity undertones. The flavor is more fruity with currants, cherries, plums, and a hint of spice. The flavor builds and builds until a strong finish that has a hint of bitters and a long aftertaste of cinnamon, clove, and more oak. Pairs well with sticky barbeque beef ribsPart of the 90+ Point Collection
