Galil Mountain Winery Meron 2011

Blend of 78% Syrah, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon and 11% Petit Verdot. The grapes for this wine are grown in the Galilee region, and are aged for 16 months in French oak barrels. Characters of plum jam, ripe blueberry and blackberry, shades of mint, vanilla, and toasted oak.

The Upper Galilee mountain range is much more than an abode for Galil Mountain Winery; it’s the Winery’s heart and soul. Sitting in a breathtaking spot atop the Upper Galilee mountain range, the innovatively designed winery is committed to revitalizing the region’s rich history of winemaking. Over 2,000 years ago, the mountain range – one of Israel’s highest at more than 1,000 meters above sea level – was a choice location for the cultivation of quality grapevines. Today, the area’s topography, soil and climate make it an ideal home for the vibrant Galil Mountain Winery.
