A kosher Right Bank Bordeaux from the Saint-Émilion satellite of Puisseguin - the small-estate, Merlot-led style that started the modern kosher Bordeaux conversation.
Mood: The guest who already knows French wine and asks if you have any kosher Bordeaux. The Shabbos table that wants Old World over Israeli.
Our sommelier says
Medium ruby, classic Right Bank in the glass. The nose is plum and black cherry over a damp-forest signature - mushroom, soft cedar, a wisp of cocoa - the Merlot-dominant fingerprint of Puisseguin. The palate is medium-to-full, with the fine-grained tannin of Bordeaux clay-limestone and fruit that's ripe without crossing into jam. Finishes savory and gently earthy. Drinks well now with food; will hold a few more years.
Tasting notes
Plum, black cherry, mushroom, soft cedar, cocoa. Medium-to-full, fine-grained tannin, ripe fruit, earthy mid-palate. Savory, gently earthy.
Food pairing
Roast lamb, beef brisket, mushroom dishes, slow-braised short ribs, aged hard cheese (after the wait), Friday-night seudah.
