      Black fruit, pepper and refined spices

      In the glass, this Shiraz has a bright garnet red color. The aroma is dominated by black currants and other dark fruits, complemented by spicy notes of black pepper, liquorice, coriander seeds, bay leaf and a hint of clove. The taste is full and powerful, with ripe tannins that provide structure and a long, soft finish where the fruit and spices come together beautifully. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

      Mediterranean influences provide character

      The Shiraz grapes grow in the coastal plains of Israel, where many hours of sunshine and a Mediterranean climate ensure optimally ripe grapes with plenty of aroma and concentration. This results in a wine with a rich fruit expression, a spicy character and a beautiful balance between power and elegance. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

      Perfect with red meat, game and hard cheeses

      This Shiraz is an excellent accompaniment to grilled beef, lamb, game dishes and stews. Its powerful character also comes into its own with pasta with a rich tomato sauce, country pâté, nuts and aged hard cheeses. For the best taste experience, it is advisable to open the wine about half an hour before serving. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
