Longboard was born from the passion of Oded Shakked, surfer first, winemaker later, who brings a unique perspective to winemaking, or rather winegrowing as he prefers to call it. Longboard believes that great tasting wines are those that are true to the people and place that grew them. Thus, they extend the notion of “terroir” to include the human aspect, not just the soils, climate and weather.
Aromas of blackcurrant, violet, and plum complement the dried herbs and wild fennel. The palate is generous and structured, with ripe tannins, dark chocolate notes, and a long, refined finish.
