I'm headed up North tomorrow to the Galil region which includes the highly regarded Galil & Golan Heights viticultural sections. While at a winery last week talking to a winemaker he had some visitors.  I told her that I thought otherwise - what about Bordeaux, which can consist of up to 5 grape varietals? 

couldn't stay away from my beloved Bordeaux varietals for long.  When speaking of Bordeaux varietals we are referring to the 5 varietals permitted in a Bordeaux wine.  Yiron" , a favorite of mine for many years, whose 2004 vintage includes Cabernet, Merlot and a touch of Syrah (not technically a Bordeaux varietal).

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. But there is a winery I have not yet mentioned - Recanati. Buy it up, drink it and be proud.
