Made a trip back up to the Golan Heights today.  Making wines exclusively grown in the Golan Heights region on its volcanic soils (a result of two volvano eruptions - the most recent a short million years ago), GHW (Golan Heights Winery) grows 22 varietals and produces close to 30 wines. 

The 2003 is drinking great, the 2004 is delicious and the just released 2005 is gorgeous.  the winery does produce several other wines that have been of particular interest of late.  The last Israeli wine I want to mention is a wine I recently tried for the first time, the Golan Cabernet Sauvignon.  Let's start with Carmel. 

The last wine I want to bring up in this category comes from the Golan Heights Winery, famous for its Yarden wines. Hermon" wines, but the GH Winery has a 2nd label you should all familiarize yourselves with - GAMLA. have found 2003 -2005 in stores ranging in price from about $ 13.50 The Dalton Canaan Red.

Well ladies and gentlemen, the results are in. will be copying a list of wines & their scores from Israeli Wine Critic Daniel Rogov's "Wine & Food Forum".  I am waiting for my physical copy of the issue to arrive before I comment specifically.  More comments later.  Without further ado, the scores.
