Merlot

During 2022, this winery sourced its grapes from Spain.  Ruby/purple in color, mostly opaque and bright.  The nose has a bit of an "aquarium" note but that mostly blows off leaving cherries, some black cherries and spice.  Medium bodied.  Medium tannins.  Cleaner on the palate.  Flavors of cherries and black cherries with a bit of earthiness.  Good finish.  The should drink well for three to five more years.  A very nice value in kosher wines.  It will probably be better with food.  It would work well with chopped or "mock" liver.  

At a recent tasting of Kosher wines from Israel, this was the runaway first place wine.  Purple in color, opaque and bright.  The nose is nice with black cherries, coffee, cherries and spice.  Full bodied.  Lovely texture.  Medium tannins.  On the palate, there is plenty of depth.  Flavors of cherries, black cherries and spice.  Good finish.  This should drink well for another five to eight years.  It is nice on its own and will work well with food.  It would go well with roasted chicken.
