Very dry with a great acidity. Notes of white flowers, unripe peach skin, almond, lemon pith, and subtle green apple.
Can’t wait to have this during the summer — 7 years ago

I really enjoy this style of Sauv Blanc. High acidity, great structure, and loads of minerality — 7 years ago

First Israeli and Kosher wine.
Aroma: reduction, bright pineapple, unripe pineapple, mineral
Taste: match stick, oak, hint of malo, overripe pineapple, papaya.
Medium+ acidity, as it opens the alcohol is more present
Blinded the staff and got either Pinot Grigio or old-world Sauvignon Blanc. — 7 years ago

8.7

Reductive and a little eggy, which has diminished a lot after being open and jostling around my car for a day.
The aroma is packed with crushed pepper, dried herbs, and a hint of gaminess alongside some minerality.
The gamey quality really inserts itself into the flavor along with the crushed black pepper along with some tart Balaton cherry skins and a kiss of candied cherries. The reductive quality is still there lurking in the background. — 7 years ago

9.2

Wow...opened it undisgorged to see how 12 years of lees influenced the wine.
So much complexity with notes of almond, dried apricots, orange peel, baked apple, mushroom, brioche, dry hay, with a hint of VA. — 7 years ago
