The wine region of Samaria
Israel's largest wine region (Shomron), coastal plain south of Haifa and Mount Carmel, Mediterranean climate, terra rossa over limestone. Cabernet Sauvignon signature red king: deep and solar with blackcurrant, blackberry, cherry, cedar, tobacco, eucalyptus and maquis herb notes, firm tannins and dense palate. Supple Merlot (plum, cocoa), peppery Cabernet Franc, dense Syrah (pepper, bacon). Ample Chardonnay (apple, butter), bright Sauvignon.
The word of the wine: Champagne rosé
Often obtained by adding red wines (from Champagne), it is even the only vineyard where this practice is allowed. Some producers prefer the practice used in other regions, i.e. a short maceration to extract sufficient colouring matter. This results in winey rosés for meals. Elegant aperitif rosé is more often made from red wine coloured Chardonnay. Rosés can be vintage or non vintage.
