Flam Classico 2021 750ml

Flam Classico 2021 is the most approachable red from Flam Winery, led by Merlot (38%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (34%) and rounded out with Petit Verdot, Syrah, Carignan and Malbec. That broad blend is the point: it gives a softer, fruit-forward red that still has structure, at 14% ABV.

Fresh red fruit leads the nose, with spice and delicate toasty notes from the barrel. The palate is well balanced, with layers of fruit, smooth texture and tannins that stay in the background, finishing long and elegant.

Flam's vineyards sit in the Judean Hills, with plots in Eshtaol, Givat Yeshayahu and Even Sapir farmed under strict supervision since the winery's founding in 1998. The Classico is the easiest way into their range: good with grilled chicken, pasta in tomato sauce, or a weeknight burger. Ralph's imports it directly, with Metro Manila delivery.
