The 2017 Marselan Reserve was aged for ten months in 40% new French oak and comes in at 14% alcohol. This isn't ever the deepest of the reds from Recanati, and it is not this year, but it is always one of the most flavorful. The structure and acidity are superb as well. In this warm year, this is still fresh and bright, with wonderfully lifted fruit. The cherries and raspberries dribble across the palate, always with crispness and not a trace of jam. It is all about mid-palate finesse—seeming delicate without ever seeming thin. The intensity of flavor is superb, but don't forget that beautiful structure. It finishes a touch tart and with some tannic pop. With aeration, it acquires some gravitas to go with the big flavor. Some will love this for the flavor, some for the freshness, some for the refinement and others for the general structure. It covers a lot of bases and should make lots of different types of drinkers happy. In very warm weather, you might do well drinking this a few degrees cooler than normal. ... More details

This deep-violet-red-colored wine has aromas of raspberry preserves, lilac and pie crust. Deep-seated tannins seem strong at first, but acidity takes hold on the palate, with flavors of pomegranate, strawberry, black cherry and Mediterranean herbs. The finish is notable for a zippy splash of Seville orange.
Wine Spectator
A concentrated red, with sanguine details marking the dried cherry, coffee bean and spice flavors. The tannins exhibit good grip, showing leather, minty herb and leafy notes on the finish. Kosher. Drink now through 2024. 550 cases made, 100 cases imported.
Winery
The wine has an inimitable flowery aroma, round tannins, and tastes of berries and Mediterranean herbs.

Region: Galilee

Galilee is not the first place many people think of when they consider New World wines, yet this small region of Israel, with its millennia of historical and cultural significance has developed a relatively strong and unique wine making identity over the past few centuries. As with neighboring Lebanon, Israeli wines have a distinctly Gallic edge to them, and the rich and fertile vineyards found around the base of Mount Tabor have proven to be a more than adequate home to a wide variety of Bordeaux grapes, from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Sémillon, Chardonnay and many others. The volcanic soils are packed full of important minerals, and the blazing sunshine helps the grapes reach full ripeness whilst expressing many of the fine features of their excellent terroir. The result is a fascinating range of wines, made according to kosher laws in one of the world's most interesting regions.

Country: Israel

The vineyards of Israel have long been associated with high quality wines, and the wineries which operate within the country use the fantastic Mediterranean climate and mineral rich soils to grow fine French grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvigon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc all over the country. Israel has five major wine regions; Galil, The Judean Hills, Shimshon, The Negev, and the Sharon Plain, with many of the most successful vineyards being located at high altitudes to benefit from the cooler temperatures and stronger breezes the vines need to produce better yields. Today, Israeli wineries are proving to be highly successful with audiences around the world, and the fact that the vast majority of Israeli wines are made to kosher requirements mean they are often in high demand amongst the worldwide Jewish population, although they are also highly popular with people of all backgrounds.
