Matar By Pelter Cb 2014

Endeavour | Renewal | ChallengeThe idea of creating a kosher wine label developed over the years naturally as part of Pelter Winery’s continued growth.We wanted to expand on existing operations and to welcome a larger and more diverse audience into our customer circle.The connection between the two brands - Pelter and Matar - make new markets more accessible and encourages us to redefine, refresh and innovate our goals and creative processes.Our endeavors in this enterprise are based on curiosity and we aspire to maintain originality and an open mind.Soil | Spirit | WaterWe harvest grapes from vineyards throughout Israel, from north to south, which provides us with flexibility and leeway. It is important for us to choose a grape variety that is grown in its optimal growing region to ensure top quality fruit. The wine is produced in the Golan Heights, and is the result of our strong attachment to the land as well as our winemaking experience accumulated over the years.The fruit is perfect and the barrel-aging process is gentle.

This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (44%), Shiraz (44%) Petit Verdot (6%) and Cabernet Franc (6%)from the Upper Galilee and Jerusalem Hills mirrors those characteristics.  Rich and full flavored, with elegance and complex middlemouth feel and a long finish.  The wine was aged for 22 months in oak barrels and offers hints of coffee, dark plum and violet flavors and aromas. Alc. volume: 14.8% Vintage: 2012
