The wine appears a deep purple color in the glass. Intense aromas of black cherry and plum. Black plum, berries, and pecan notes, with a full body, balanced acidity, and a long and spicy aftertaste.

Delicious with grilled red meats and hearty stews. Serve slightly cooler than room temperature.

 

Recanati Description

The grapes are handpicked, and after destemming, cold maceration, fermentation and pressing, they are matured in French oak barrels – approximately half of which are new – for 12 months. This is so the oak flavors and aroma do not overpower the exclusive flavors and aroma of the fruit. The wine is then bottled after coarse filtration alone, and drunk as is – authentic, “wild” and Israeli.

Located in Israel's Merom Ha'Galil within the Upper Galilee, the newly built Recanati winery is a showcase winemaking facility, equipped with the most innovative technology available today. It obtains its grapes from some of the area's finest high-altitude vineyards, which enjoy a climate similar to that of California's Napa Valley. Warm days and contrastingly cool nights, together with chalky-gravelly soil conditions and limited rainfall, create an ideal environment in which to nurture these classic varieties. Owned by Lenny Recanati, a native of Israel with ancestral roots stretching back to Italy, the winery is the fruit of Lenny's life-long dream to produce truly world-class wines. Chief winemaker is Kobi Arviv, known for his creative work and authentic winemaking philosophy. Arviv's use of ancient and unique techniques, alongside the technological advances of today, raises the quality bar for Israeli wines.
