Varietal: Chardonnay
Despite having its origins in western France, Chardonnay's immense popularity and flexibility quickly meant that before long, there wasn't a wine producing country in the world which wasn't investing in this fascinating and versatile grape varietal. Today, Chardonnays manage to win fine wine competitions and satisfy supermarket shoppers simultaneously, due to the fact that this grape varietal can take on many characteristics and features of where it is grown and how it is handled. Indeed, this green skinned grape is renowned for not having so much unique flavor within the fruit, but is very sensitive to the features of the terroir it is grown in, as well as to aging As such, it isn't unusual to find bottles of single variety Chardonnay wine described as holding notes of white stone, mountain waters, or other such geological features alongside the more predictable fruit descriptions This makes Chardonnay grape varietal wines an exciting world to delve into – full of surprises, full of delights.
Region: Galilee
Galilee is not the first place many people think of when they consider New World wines, yet this small region of Israel, with its millennia of historical and cultural significance has developed a relatively strong and unique wine making identity over the past few centuries. As with neighboring Lebanon, Israeli wines have a distinctly Gallic edge to them, and the rich and fertile vineyards found around the base of Mount Tabor have proven to be a more than adequate home to a wide variety of Bordeaux grapes, from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Sémillon, Chardonnay and many others. The volcanic soils are packed full of important minerals, and the blazing sunshine helps the grapes reach full ripeness whilst expressing many of the fine features of their excellent terroir. The result is a fascinating range of wines, made according to kosher laws in one of the world's most interesting regions.
Country: Israel
For thousands of years, Israel has been an important country for wine production, with major wine regions growing thousands of acres of grapevines in the hot Mediterranean climate. The land itself is ideal for wine production, and has a mineral rich limestone based soil which helps ensure the grapes grow to full ripeness. Many of the vineyards of Israel are located at high altitudes, such as the popular and successful vineyards of Golan Heights in the Galil region, where the cooler temperatures and strong breezes create an ideal environment in which the imported French grape varietals can grow. Indeed, French grape varietals make up for the vast majority of grapes grown in Israel, with Cabernet Sauvigon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc grapes growing in all five wine regions of the country.
