The 2006 CABERNET SAUVIGNON has a little more intensity than the Merlot, but also a certain harshness to it that on opening can overwhelm the modest mid-palate. It showed more harmony with a little bit of air, but it then became rather sweet on the finish, a little candied. Drink now-2012. Importer: Royal Wine Corp, Bayonne, N.J.; tel: (718) 534-0118.

A velvety red, with an appealing peppery note to the red plum, berry and red nectarine flavors. Anise and orange peel enliven the finish. Kosher. Drink now. 100 cases imported.??–KM??Region: Israel / Judean Hills Select to Add
