Isaac's Ram Cabernet Sauvignon
Winery: Hevron Heights Winery Year: 2001 Type: Red Country: Israel (Judean Hills) Grape Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Note: Aged for 18 months in oak barrels. Alcohol: 13% Mevushal: No Date Reviewed: 9/27/06
Color: 2.5 (of 3) Note: Very nice, heavy garnet color. Looks very full-bodied.
Aroma: 6.5 (of 7) Note: Very nice aroma's of ripe berries, oak, pepper and licorice. Very inviting scent that draws you in.
Taste: 8.5 (of 10) Note: This Cabernet is packed with the flavor of ripe berries, including cherries, blackberries and plums along with a very good balance of oak, pepper and tea. It has a long, very dry finish with strong tannins. This is a wine that really grows on you. I liked the second glass much more than the first. Some people might find it a little too acidic at the end but I thought the wine had a lot of character.
Total: 17.5 (of 20)
Food: I enjoyed this with dish my mother calles "Goulash" even though that's not what it really is. It's a pasta dish with elbow macaroni and fried ground beef in a heavy tomato sauce with diced tomatoes, chopped onions, garlic and other spices.
