Yatir Mount Amasa

Yatir Mt. Amasa 2011 is composed of 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 25% Shiraz, 5% Petite Verdot and 3% Malbec, from a number of plots in the Yatir Forest vineyards at altitudes between 650 and 900 meters above sea level. The composition of species of the wine differs from year to year, depending on the nature of the harvest, in order to emphasize the ‘Yatir’ character and uniqueness of the region and its vineyards. The wines from the various vineyards are matured separately in oak barrels for one year prior to creating the final blend. The wine was bottled in March 2013 and left at the winery for another year and a half to age in the bottle. It is suited to continued maturing for another five years or more
