About this product
A cool-climate expression of Syrah from the volcanic plateau — using altitude to produce freshness and aromatics unexpected from an Israeli wine. Violet, black olive, smoked meat, white pepper, and volcanic mineral with a Northern Rhône-like elegance that challenges conventional expectations. The wine's relative lightness and freshness make it a compelling case for the Golan Heights' unique terroir potential beyond the obvious Cabernet pathway.
