"Delicate and profound"

This vintage fulfills Château Kefraya’s promise: to produce a concentrated wine, brimming with sunshine, and enjoyable even in its youth. Its intensely complex notes of garrigue, tobacco, spices, and red berries are intoxicating. On the palate, this journey continues, with the addition of refined tannins and depth, all set against a backdrop of freshness.

Review by Ms. FRANCOISE K. Published on January 23, 2021

A very delicate and light wine on the palate, though unfortunately with a hint of bitterness on the finish.
