Wine Description:

A stunning wine from the Judean Hills in Israel. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon with minimal filtration and fining giving balance and texture with intense, prune, plum and blackcurrant fruit with subtle liquorice and vanilla. One of the best and most unusual Cabernets weve tasted.

Tasting Note:

Aged in oak for 12 months, this is rich and aromatic with classic cassis notes and a soft oaky spiciness. It's full-bodied, with a hint of Mediterranean herbs and savoury finish but the tannins are smooth and supple.

Producer Description

Clos de Gat is situated in the foothills of the Judean Mountains, bordering Israel’s biblical Ayalon Valley, where Joshua defeated the Five Kings. An ancient “Gat” (Hebrew for wine press), pre-dating the Roman period by a thousand years, is located by the house set in the heart of the vineyards
The region’s rolling hills and valleys have supported grapevine cultivation for thousands of years. The combination of a thin layer of topsoil atop a bed-rock of limestone, together with a unique micro-climate, make it possible to grow grapes of outstanding quality.
