Galil Mountain Yiron 2015

Aromas of black currant and vanilla custard pave the way for flavors of blackberry, black cherry, dark chocolate and butterscotch. This well-balanced wine has velvety tannins that linger into an orange zest finish. Kosher. Yarden Wines, Inc.

Since Bordeaux red blends are often quite structured and tannic, they pair best with hearty, flavorful and fatty meat dishes. Any type of steak makes for a classic pairing. Equally welcome with these wines would be beef brisket, pot roast, braised lamb or smoked duck.
