Pinto Wadi Shualim Red Blend is a remarkable artisan kosher red from a boutique Negev winery making serious wine in one of Israel's most challenging terroirs. The Pinto family planted their flagship vineyard near Yeruham in Wadi Shu'alim (Valley of the Foxes) in partnership with local growers, working with renowned Israeli winemaker Ya'acov Oryah to craft genuinely place-driven kosher wines. The blend leans on Grenache, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Malbec โ most of it manually harvested from the spectacular Yeruham Vineyard. The nose opens with ripe black cherry, plum, dried herbs, sweet baking spice, and a subtle thread of warm desert mineral character. On the palate, the wine is medium-to-full bodied with juicy fruit, supple tannins, lifted acidity, and a long, savory finish that reveals serious craftsmanship. Fully kosher and certified under strict supervision (OU, Badatz Beit Yosef, Tartikov). Pair it with grilled lamb, beef brisket, slow-cooked stews, mushroom-based dishes, or aged hard cheeses for a memorable kosher table experience that proves desert wine deserves the world's attention.
