More questions
The Chardonnay Odem from Yarden is born in one of the most suitable terroirs of the Galilee, a territory that with its altitude and Mediterranean climate offers ideal conditions to enhance this international grape variety. The wine stands out for its refined complexity and an elegant balance between freshness and structure. Carefully aged, often in small oak barrels, it expresses intense aromas of golden apple, ripe pear, and a delicate buttery note, enriched by toasted and vanilla hints that enhance its softness.
On the palate, it is enveloping, with good acidity that guarantees longevity and pleasantness. The Chardonnay Odem pairs splendidly with delicate fish dishes, shellfish, and soft cheeses, finding its highest expression alongside seafood carpaccio or creamy risottos. A wine that blends tradition and modernity, offering an authentic representation of the Israeli territory.

The story
The Yarden label was born within the Golan Heights Winery, founded by local agricultural communities. The producer has played a central role in the development of modern Israeli viticulture and in promoting the Golan's quality wines on the international stage.
Production philosophy
The approach prioritizes expression of the terroir: high‑altitude plantings, detailed study of individual vineyard blocks, and targeted winemaking to highlight the identity of each parcel. The estate carries out separate harvesting and vinification of the lots to preserve terroir characteristics and select the best grape clusters for top lines such as Yarden.
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards mainly located on the Golan Plateau and in the Galilee region: basaltic volcanic soils, significant diurnal temperature variation, snowy winters and varying altitudes that contribute to wines with freshness, structure and mineral character.
Awards and recognition
The group has received numerous international recognitions; among the awards cited in public sources is recognition from Wine Enthusiast.
