1848 Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Reserve 2014

Excellent. Smooth, rich flavor. Daphna Spring break weekend 2015.

The Cabernet Franc grapes were harvested in the Kohav HaShahar vineyard on the eastern slopes of the Jerusalem Mountains at an altitude of 600 meters. The vineyard soil type is ”terra rossa” with basalt which is a drained soil that develops the roots and strengthens the vines. The vineyard enjoys a good exposure to the sun which allows high quality maturation and cool nights that contribute to the concentration of flavors in the grapes.
