  What's not to love about the prime time 96 Chateau Kefraya? This exquisite blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Mourvedre, Carignan and Grenache is endowed with an enticingly mature, deep garnet appearance and lovely secondary aromas of mint leaf, damp forest floor, led pencil shavings and crushed dried cranberries. It is full-bodied and luscious as it envelopes the palate with layers of caramel, Grand Marnier and fresh figs. The velvety finish is equally delightful and, whilst unlikely to improve further, this lovely fully mature wine should continue to provide pleasure in the glass for the next 5 years.

  Black/purple color. Moderate aromatic start - Cedar, black cherry, fresh leather. Similar on palate. Better after open an hour.
