The Yarden Sauvignon Blanc features complex aromas of guava, gooseberry, lime, fig leaf and lemongrass, rounded out by a hint of spice. This flavorful wine exhibits medium body and a long finish. A small percentage of the wine fermented in French oak barrels, adding some body and complexity.
Ready to enjoy now, the Yarden Sauvignon Blanc is best consumed within a couple years of harvest. Try serving the wine with pan-seared grouper fillets, roasted chicken with caper sauce, or goat cheese ravioli with lemon pesto.
The Galilee (or Galil) is the northernmost — and generally considered the best — appellation in Israel. The highest quality growing area within the appellation is the Golan Heights (or simply the Golan), also the coldest region in Israel. The vineyards on this volcanic plateau rise from 1,300 feet to 3,900 feet above sea level and receive snowfall in the winter. Golan Heights Winery is located in the town of Katzrin in the central Golan.
