Segal’s 2012 Special Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Galilee)

Country: Israel / Galilee
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Winery: Segal’s / Special Reserve

This wine is dark red-violet color to the eye, offering aromas of blackberry, roasted red pepper and juniper berry. It is very smooth on the palate, with flavors of black plum, blackberry, white peach, elderberry and violet. There is a slightly dominant eucalyptus flavor that backs off at the finish, replaced by a fresh cherry juice flavor.
