This big and beautiful Israeli Cabernet is made from prime fruit sourced from the Golan Heights. The grapes come from the Pelter family’s high altitude Haruach Vineyard which sits at 11000 metres above sea level and boasts ancient volcanic soils. These conditions are perfect for producing exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon with the hot, sunny days and cooler nights locking in freshness and elegance as well as intense fruit flavours into the grapes.
The family harvests their grapes manually for quality purposes, and once in the winery the fruit is macerated and fermented for two weeks at a low temperature. The young wine is then aged in French oak barrels for 18 months before bottling to add polish and enticing hints of toast and spice to the flavour profile.
The Pelter family have been farming in Israel since Sam Pelter moved to the country from the USA in 1970. Sam’s son, Tal, was inspired to found the family’s boutique winery in the Golan Heights in 2005 after studying winemaking in Australia. The project has now blossomed into one of Israel’s most interesting small wineries thanks to the exceptional terroir of the Golan Heights and the Pelter family’s real passion for making top quality Israeli wines.
They have a great selection of Georgian wines which is rare for Europe. Fast UPS shipping with delivery at your door.
