Amuka Blanc Sauvignon Chardonnay
Galilee, Israel
This is a nice Sauvignon Blanc blend from Israel.
Showing limes, grapefruits, vegetables, earth, green apples, minerals, spices and bitter herbs.
Medium bodied and dry on the palate with high acidity.
Tangy finish with limes and bitter almonds.
Tastes like a new world Sauvignon Blanc with a twist of Bordeaux.
I had this vintage last year, and it's starting to loose the fruits and it is becoming earthier.
Good by itself and better with food. I paired it with a grilled Rainbow Trout with a mango salsa sauce.
A blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Chardonnay. Kosher.
12.5% alcohol by volume.
88 points.
$22.

These Sauvignon Blanc blend from Israel reminds me of a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Nicely balanced with nice complexity and a nice mouthfeel.
A good quality wine. Crisp and refreshing with enough acidity to pair with lemony fish dishes.
Needs 15 minutes to open up properly and show some complexity.
Good by itself or with food. I paired it with a cheese plate and crackers.
