TNR: Segal's Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Dishon 2005

Thanks

Menachem, Hi


Following is my most recent tasting note for the wine in question.

Rogov

Segal, Cabernet Sauvignon, Single Vineyard, Dishon, 2005: Dark, almost inky-garnet in color, concentrated and intense. Full-bodied and tannic enough to be thought of as chewy. Good black fruits here, but not so much a fruity wine as one led by aromas and flavors of smoked bacon, licorice and espresso coffee. Drink now–2011. Score 89. K

great note at a great price point

where do these wines fit in on the continuum of segal's?

Menachem, Hi

Top of the line Segal wines are the Single Vineyard and Unfiltered wines, those followed, in this order or overall quality, by those in the Marom Galil (including wines labeled as Single and Fusion), Rechasim, Batzir and Shel Sergal series.
