| Community Tasting Notes (average 87.3 pts. and median of 88 pts. in 11 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Eldad on 1/28/2017 & rated 88 points: Very round coffee plum milky - excellent (2697 views) | | | Tasted by MicklethePickle on 11/29/2016 & rated 85 points: This is not a seriously great cab, but for the money it is a spicy, easy-going, easy-drinking red wine that will match with pizza or red sauce on pasta. This is medium ruby, spicy, cinnamon, high-toned, red fruits, and nice flowers. Pretty. Similar in the mouth, but a little more serious, though lacking real depth and richness. Totally on the ripe berry, red fruit side. 4-11-13-7: 85/100. (2812 views) | | | Tasted by tovlev on 5/25/2016: Strong overripe fruit and a little sweet. Calmed down a little the next day but still not good. (3267 views) | | | Tasted by jerbearjb on 1/4/2016 & rated 88 points: Nice light red. Well balanced, but not overly complex. Slightly too sweet and needs a tiny bit more acid to fully balance. (3316 views) |
| Golan Heights Winery Producer WebsiteRed Bordeaux BlendRed Bordeaux is generally made from a blend of grapes. Permitted grapes are Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec and rarely Carménère.Today Carménère is rarely used, with Château Clerc Milon, a fifth growth Bordeaux, being one of the few to still retain Carménère vines. As of July 2019, Bordeaux wineries authorized the use of four new red grapes to combat temperature increases in Bordeaux. These newly approved grapes are Marselan, Touriga Nacional, Castets, and Arinarnoa.
Wineries all over the world aspire to making wines in a Bordeaux style. In 1988, a group of American vintners formed The Meritage Association to identify wines made in this way. Although most Meritage wines come from California, there are members of the Meritage Association in 18 states and five other countries, including Argentina, Australia, Canada, Israel, and Mexico. |
