Israel's northernmost winery — Odem Mountain's Chardonnay from volcanic-soil vineyards on the Golan, the kind of high-altitude site that puts mineral spine into white wine. Lean Israeli Chardonnay done seriously.

Mood: Mineral, volcanic, taut.

Tasting notes

Green apple, lemon pith, white flower, wet stone. Medium-bodied with bright acidity, citrus core, and a flinty mineral mid-palate. Long and dry with persistent stone and citrus.

Food pairing

Grilled fish, chicken, mushroom risotto, dairy lunch.
