Exciting Israeli red wines; 1/1/2017-2/28/2017 (Tel Aviv): For an American, the label on this wine is lovely, but challenging: not one word of English except the URL and the year! The wine is pale yellow in color, with a nose that seems slightly exotic, showing pineapple and beeswax, orange peel, hints of sweet white flowers. In the mouth a fairly dry wine, fruit is ripe but nicely framed by the acidity, long but light finish. I'm assuming this is a steel-fermented Chardonnay, although without being able to translate the label I can't be sure. I like it very much, quite Burgundian.

Lovely Chardonnay with a nose showing yellow fruits and vanilla pound cake, good balance of ripeness to acidity, soft mouthfeel.
