Alexander the Great Series – Art / Louvre 2016

This wine derives its name from the artwork adorning the label.  Art / Louvre is a classy blend created from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot.  Produced almost every year, it is a numbered series.

Grapes for this wine come from well nurtured vineyards of over 30 years old, raised at a height of 870 meters above sea level, in the Dalton Plateau in Upper Galilee where the earth is rich in basalt and lime which infuse the carefully harvested grapes wine with their unique flavor.

This wine spends 36 months maturing, 60% of it in French barrels and 40% in American barrels before being blended.

Label: our winery purchased the rights to imprint this series’ label with the painting by Charles Le Brun depicting Alexander the Great’s triumphant entrance into the city of Babylon.
