Clos de Gat Chardonnay 2020

Clos de Gat Chardonnay, Judean Hills, Israel, 2020  

Grape: 100% Chardonnay fermented in French oak barrels where it's kept on the lees for 12 months 

This unfiltered dry white wine is elegant and complex, with hints of spice, orange blossoms and citrus fruits on the nose. On the palate it displays freshness, good acidity and a harmonious balance between fruit and oak, with a long lingering finish. 

Clos de Gat is situated in the foothills of the Judean Mountains, bordering Israel’s biblical Ayalon Valley, where Joshua defeated the Five Kings. An ancient “Gat” (Hebrew for wine press), pre-dating the Roman period by a thousand years, is located by the house set in the heart of the vineyards. Clos de Gat relies on the vineyard’s natural yeasts for the fermentation process, the wines thus gain greater complexity and fully complete the expression and uniqueness of Clos de Gat’s “Terroir”. 

Delicious with salads, fish, seafood, poultry and white meats.
