Carmel Winery Moscato di Carmel Mevushal 2020

A deliciously light wine, bursting with perfumed floral aromas and wonderful hints of peach and citrus flavors. The hint of effervescence provides a spirited liveliness. Look for a nose of apricots and lychees, with a whiff of wildflowers, and flavors of peach, lychee, apricots and lemons, with a nice bit of honey on the finish.

Carmel Winery is a historic winery in Israel. It was founded in 1882 by Baron Edmond de Rothschild, owner of Chateau Lafite in France, and has the two largest wineries in Israel: at Rishon Le Zion (south of Tel Aviv) and at Zichron Ya'acov (south of Haifa). Each winery has deep underground cellars built by Rothschild in the 19th century. Carmel Winery also has two small, state-of-the-art wineries close to key vineyards to allow production of small quantities of handcrafted wines: Kayoumi Winery (Upper Galilee) and Yatir Winery (northeastern Negev).
