  April 5, 2020 - Beautiful balance with crunchy tannins that are well integrated but require some good aeration before fully opening up. Another solid showing from Yatir.

  May 13, 2019 - Israel-tasting, flight 3, wine 2 (non-blind): 15% ABV. The wine was dark ruby in colour and offered ripe dark fruit and a plastic note on the nose, and ripe red and dark berries, dark cherry, chocolate and spices on the palate, with notable but well-integrated tannin. The wine was masculine and a little rustic and the finish seemed a little weak, but the wine was well-balanced and drank well. It improved with some time in the glass and I recommend extended aeration. 89+

Rich, powerful and heavy, bold texture, complex, well balanced, natural berries acidity, refined tannins. Food friendly, best match is meat dishes. Serve 18º - 20º. Open about three hours in advance. Should be well during next decade.
