Description

Margalit - Cabernet Franc is a distinguished red wine from Margalit Winery, one of Israel's premier boutique wineries. Known for its meticulous craftsmanship and commitment to quality, Margalit Winery has become synonymous with exceptional Israeli wines. This Cabernet Franc is crafted from carefully selected grapes grown in the upper Galilee region, where the cool climate and rich soils help express the variety's elegance and complexity.

Margalit Cabernet Franc is a sophisticated, full-bodied wine that showcases the varietal’s characteristic herbaceous and floral notes, balanced by ripe fruit flavors and a hint of oak. The wine typically spends over a year in French oak barrels, enhancing its structure and adding layers of spice and vanilla. Margalit’s dedication to terroir and minimalist intervention results in a wine that is both refined and expressive.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
Deep garnet with violet highlights.

NOSE:
Aromas of ripe raspberry, red cherry, and plum, complemented by subtle notes of green bell pepper, lavender, and dried herbs. Underlying hints of cedar, graphite, and oak contribute complexity.

TASTE:
The wine is rich and structured, with flavors of red and black fruits, such as black cherry and red currant, balanced by herbal tones, black pepper, and a touch of mocha. Silky tannins and well-integrated acidity provide a balanced, elegant mouthfeel.

FINISH:
Long and satisfying, with a lingering note of spiced red fruit and a gentle earthy minerality.

Food Pairing

The complexity and structure of Margalit Cabernet Franc make it a versatile companion for a variety of dishes:

Grilled Meats: Pairs beautifully with grilled lamb, beef, or veal, as the wine’s tannins and herbal notes enhance the savory qualities of the meat.

Herbed Dishes: Complements dishes with herbs like rosemary, thyme, or sage, where the wine’s herbal tones mirror those in the food.

Vegetarian Dishes: Works well with roasted vegetables, particularly bell peppers, eggplant, and mushrooms, or with Mediterranean-style dishes featuring tomatoes, olives, and herbs.

Cheeses: Pairs well with semi-hard cheeses such as aged gouda, manchego, or a sharp cheddar, balancing the wine’s intensity.
