Kosher from Golan Heights. Dry but borderline off dry (a shocking 11.6% alc). Crisp, balanced, low fruit and acid. Calls to mind Albariño. Becoming too sweet as it warms up. — 9 years ago
A very good, ripe style, Cab Franc--my favorite of the Pelter lineup, from Israel's cooler climate Galilee region. — 12 years ago
Very good, the smell is fruity yet the taste is dry and a bit of a sour bite very good. Grapes from the south of Israel. Drank with Mom and Dad at winery — 8 years ago

Damp leather and dust on nose. Classic syrah open with bright dark fruit, a touch more oak than I like and almost refined tannins. Nice and long but finish gets a bit harsh. Would be hard to tell it's not from France. Thank you Yuval Barak — 9 years ago

10% merlot from golan heights
