Description
- Vintage 2004.
summary
"The 2004 Domaine du Castel Grand Vin is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, unfined and unfiltered. It was aged for 24 months in new French oak. An elegant and generous wine, the flavors of chocolate, currants, berries, and tannins work harmoniously to create a exquisite finish. Mark Squires simply proclaimed: ""It is beautiful"" and continued ""this is always delicious, as well as beautifully constructed and sensually fragrant…certainly a short-list contender for Israel's 'Best Bordeaux-blend."" Drink now-2015. Daniel Rogov, 94. Mark Squires, Wine Advocate, 92."
