This could pass as a good Loire Sauvignon, except for the "sunny" acidity that betrays its Israeli origin. Nicely avoids excess of tropical fruit, with citrus (grapefruit) lined with saline minerality. A pure, unpacked style, this is one of Israel's best Sauvignons, yet pales in comparison to Tzora's white Shoresh.

Off the charts. Truly one of the best Sauvignon Blanc wines I have ever had. The nose is superb with distinctive grapefruit notes, long on the palate with peach in the finish.

Crisp, green apple , hint if citrus, a bit low on acid.

Super clean and crisp. Nose with a hint of hibiscus and dried rose petals. A small hint of smoke at the finish Super long finish - surprisingly so for a Sauv blanc. Really nice.

Should mature another year or two. Mineral, smooth, elegant. Mild nose and palate.
