Yatir's flagship - a Bordeaux-style blend from the high-elevation Yatir Forest plateau on the edge of the Negev, one of Israel's most acclaimed cuvees.
Mood: The cellar bottle. The Israeli wine collector who already knows Yatir. The Yom Tov seudah where the flagship comes out.
Our sommelier says
Deep ruby-purple, dense in the glass. The nose is layered and serious - blackcurrant, black cherry, cedar, dark chocolate, a mineral and dried-herb signature from the high-elevation forest fruit. Cabernet Sauvignon leads on the structural spine, Petit Verdot adds the leafy graphite lift and dark color, Merlot rounds the mid-palate. Full-bodied, finely tannic, French oak fully absorbed. Long, mineral, layered finish. Decant an hour for current drinking; built to hold a decade-plus in the cellar.
Tasting notes
Blackcurrant, black cherry, cedar, dark chocolate, mineral, dried herb. Full body, fine structured tannin, dense fruit core, oak-integrated. Long, mineral, layered, age-worthy.
Food pairing
Standing rib roast, lamb shoulder, slow-braised short ribs, aged hard cheese (after the wait), Yom Tov seudah.
