Recanati Winery Syrah, Galilee, Israel

點擊次數(shù)：4875

The 2005 SYRAH was aged in French and American oak for 12 months. I think this would be my pick of Recanati’s low priced single varietal wines, but like the Merlot and Cabernet reviewed here, it is simple and bland, with modest concentration and a nominal finish, although pleasant enough and reasonably tasty. Drink now-2010. All of Recanati’s wines are Kosher. The Yasmin lineup is also Mevushal.Importer: Palm Bay International, Port Washington, N.Y.; tel: (516) 721-5123.

An aroma of rose petal leads to concentrated flavors of raspberry, cream and spice. There's plenty of iron and mineral on the finish. Kosher. Drink now. 2,400 cases made, 300 cases imported.??–KM??Region: Israel / Galilee Select to Add

A lush and succulent Syrah that is bound to pair well with most anything, but would really be exceptional with braised brisket or chicken. Intense aromas of raspberries, strawberries, vanilla and iris lead into an inviting crushed-velvet texture and round mouthfeel, closing with a clean medium-length finish.
