The 2013 Yarden Rom features ripe black cherry and plum fruit characters, layered with attractive notes of earth, smoke, orange rind, fresh herb, chocolate, coffee and spice. This complex, flavorful yet elegant blended wine displays a full body and a lingering finish.
he early, wet winter preceding the 2013 harvest was followed by a warmish spring. While it looked like we were heading for an early vintage, the cool months of June and July led to the harvest starting about one week later than normal. The remainder of the season continued on the cool side. A wonderful feature of this growing period was a distinct lack of extreme weather, either hot or cold. The result was beautiful ripening, with harvest finishing exactly on time at the end of October. All in all, this was a great season with great wines.
The 2013 Yarden Rom is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Syrah and 20% Merlot, with all fruit harvested from our best vineyards on the Golan Heights. The wine was bottled without filtration after aging for 18 months in French oak barrels.
Due to the VERY limited supplies we can only allow 2 bottles per customer.
