Bat Shlomo Regavim (750ml)

This is the flagship red of Bat Shlomo, the historic moshava that Baron Rothschild founded in 1889. The blend is roughly 86% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% Syrah. Fourteen months in French oak give it the structure to age. The name 'Regavim' means clods of earth, and it honors the youth agricultural school that helps work the vineyards.

Mood: Earthy, Galilean, soulful.

Tasting notes

Ripe black cherry, plum, and raspberry mix with notes of cocoa, green tea, and warm earth. The body is medium-to-full with polished tannin, and dark berry fruit is braided through cedar, sweet spice, and a savoury herbal lift. The long, balanced finish has dark fruit fading into oak and tobacco, with damp earth as the final note.

Food pairing

Serve it with a slow-roasted lamb shoulder, a grilled steak, or a hearty Shabbos cholent. It is also excellent with aged hard cheeses, mushroom risotto, or a rib-eye on the grill.
