WINE DESCRIPTION
The Tulip Cabernet Sauvignon Upper Galilee from Tulip Winery in Israel is a balanced blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan, and Viognier. After a meticulous grape harvest, the grapes are swiftly transported to the press house for selection and gentle crushing. Fermentation occurs in small wooden vats at controlled temperatures, ensuring optimal flavor extraction. Post-fermentation, the wine is aged for several months in oak barrels, which imparts additional complexity and depth. The result is a well-rounded wine that showcases the careful vinification process and the unique characteristics of the Upper Galilee region.
