Blanc Israeli Journey

Lovely white blend from Israel, fresh pleasant fruity , tropical notes, lime, citrus, and hint of flowers, medium body, fruity fresh finish. My score 86, drink to 2020

86/100

it's been a few vintages since i had vitkin's entry-level ' white journey'.

starting as a boutique winery avoiding the expected cab sauvignon, Merlot and chardonnay they grew but still play it different.

this is mostly old vine colombard with added granache blanc, chenin, viognier & gewurzterminer. a very small part in oak.

what a lovely surprise. full body and medium - acidity with mostly flowers, some greeness and citrus variety with grapefruit forward.

great 💪 sipper.

exceptional vfm (2 for 120 nis).

red journey report in a bit.

Very refreshing!

First bottle was corked. Liked this. Refreshing floral and citrus nose followed by crispness and hints of melon.

We asked the waiter to describe the wine and he rattled off multiple varietals...and he was right. There are at least 2 or 3 different levels of flavor to this wine. Really interesting yet easy to drink.
