Description

Margalit - Enigma is a prestigious, limited-edition wine from Margalit Winery, often considered one of the crown jewels of Israeli wine production. It is a Bordeaux-style blend, typically crafted from a combination of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and other varietals, depending on the vintage. Enigma is designed to showcase the complexity, elegance, and potential for aging that the Margalit brand is known for. With its exceptional quality and small production, this wine is a true expression of the Upper Galilee region's unique terroir.

Margalit Enigma is a powerful and sophisticated wine that combines the best of both Old World and New World winemaking. The wine undergoes careful barrel aging in French oak for 18-24 months, allowing the different varietals to integrate seamlessly. The result is a wine with a deep, layered structure, elegant tannins, and a rich bouquet of flavors. Enigma is produced only in select years when the grapes meet the winery’s rigorous standards.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
Deep, opaque ruby with hints of garnet at the rim.

NOSE:
Complex aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and ripe plum, intertwined with earthy undertones of tobacco, leather, and a subtle hint of graphite. Floral notes of violet and spices like clove and black pepper add further depth.

TASTE:
Full-bodied and powerful, with concentrated flavors of dark fruit, such as cassis, black cherry, and blueberry, balanced by savory, herbal elements and a touch of mocha. The wine's tannins are firm yet velvety, providing structure without overpowering the fruit. The acidity is well-balanced, ensuring freshness and longevity.

FINISH:
Long and elegant, with lingering notes of dark fruit, spice, and a touch of minerality, signaling the wine's potential for aging.

Food Pairing

The complexity and structure of Margalit Enigma make it a fantastic choice for pairing with rich, hearty dishes:

Grilled Meats: Pairs excellently with grilled steaks, lamb, or prime rib, as the wine’s tannins complement the richness of the meat.
Roasted Game Meats: Perfect with game meats like venison, wild boar, or roasted duck, which enhance the wine’s earthy and herbal notes.
Aged Cheeses: Enjoy with aged cheeses such as gouda, manchego, or a rich blue cheese, as the wine’s bold character pairs well with intense, savory flavors.
Hearty Stews: Pairs wonderfully with slow-cooked beef or lamb stews, braised short ribs, or a rich osso buco.
