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. | WINE TASTING GUY OCTOBER 19, 2008 Carmel's quality wine revolution Prior to visiting the winery today I tried their LOW LEVEL supermarket 2007 "Private Collection" Cab/Merlot blend. I fancy myself an aspiring Israeli wine expert, but I must admit that I have lots to do before I earn any such title. Among the many things I must do is to better acquaint myself with one of Israel's oldest wineries - Carmel. | | | | | | | WINE TASTING GUY SEPTEMBER 27, 2008 Wines for the New (Jewish) Year UNDER $30 No Merlots (OK, maybe 1) and no Cab's (OK, maybe 1 or 2). The 2003 is drinking great, the 2004 is delicious and the just released 2005 is gorgeous. Those are: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot & Malbec. The Dalton Alma , a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, is a nice wine that is priced right. | WINE TASTING GUY MARCH 26, 2008 Best bet (kosher) Israeli wines for Passover - at all price ranges. Also in the $13-$14 range from Galil Mountain and worth checking out is their Merlot &/or Shiraz. The last wine I want to bring up in this category comes from the Golan Heights Winery, famous for its Yarden wines. Rogov gives the 2004 the best score of the bunch, but any will do the trick at $14 or so. Galil Mountain. | | |
