October 9, 2013 - GHW single-vineyard blind-tasting (Wine-Route, Givatayim): dark red-purple colour
rich dark-fresh-fruits spicy aroma with notes of eucalyptus, liquorice & pepper.
full body, still young but already with round tannins, too much oaky flavours aftertaste, not balanced enough yet, requires further 2-4 years of ageing, after which it'll be in its optimal drinking window for 4-6 years, at least. -
