General Information
Yarden Chardonnay was produced entirely from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Golan Heights. The cool climate, rocky volcanic soil and high altitude are ideal conditions for growing classic wine grape varieties. Barrel fermentation and aging, along with partial malolactic fermentation, yields a beautifully complex wine balancing fruit with butter and oak. To preserve the quality of the wine, this bottle should be stored on its side in a cool, dark place. Best served at about 55 degrees F.

A disappointing bottle, extremely oaky, to the point of being unpleasant.

Not bad, but too acidic. The Katzrin Chardonnay is worth the price difference.

This represents the old school Israeli Chardonnay style. It is very oaky, dry and buttery. The acidity levels are a little sharp making the lemon notes predominant. Not a very well-balanced of well-executed Chardonnay.
