Gamla Sauvignon Blanc

A Sauvignon Blanc that shows what cool high altitudes can get out of this grape variety: lively, aromatically precise, with a clear structure.

The Golan Heights Winery is located in the northeast of Israel, on the plateau of the Golan Heights at an altitude of 400 to 1,200 meters. The large temperature differences between day and night slow down ripening and preserve the natural acidity of the grapes. The winery is considered one of the defining addresses for high-quality Israeli wine – the Gamla is their accessible, everyday line.

In the glass, the wine shows aromas of guava and lime, plus freshly cut grass and a mineral hint of flint on the finish. Cold fermentation at low temperatures secures the fruit aromas and keeps the acid structure lively – the result is a white wine with drive and freshness that does not appear heavy.

Serving temperature: 8–10 °C. Pairs well with grilled sea bass, goat cheese salads, hummus with fresh herbs, or light pasta dishes with lemon sauce. Also a good choice as an uncomplicated aperitif.
