winemaker's notes:

A perennial favorite on restaurant wine lists, Artemis is generous in flavor and velvety in texture. Aromas of cassis and caramel rise and give way to earthy notes of black olive, black pepper, and truffles. Classic flavors of cassis and black cherry fill the mouth as notes of violets and vanilla linger on the finish.

Enjoy this wine with braised short ribs on a cold winter's night or with a porcini and gorgonzola burger for you gourmet grillers.

 I would buy this wine again

A bottleproviding pleasure thru it's vibrant good taste. Fruit bursting onto the palate of the drinker in a rush of cherry undergirded by delightful tanins that do not impose on the wine, but rather serve to firmly undergird this honey of a bottle. Smooth, delightful finish which trails off into a cushiony delight of a finish. I have two bottles already wrapped to give to my sister and my niece this holiday season. I really can't recommend this wine too highly. Its almost a shame to deprive the world of a dram of this nectar drinking it, yet it would be insane not to! If I were you I'd get it while the getting is good.

 I would buy this wine again

A big, beautiful bouquet. That's what this wine has. Put this creation in a nice big Riedel, put your nose up to it and see if you can handle it. It is overpowering in the best of ways.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
