Descrizione

Golan Heights is a company from Katzrin, a city located in the Golan Heights, born on the ruins of an ancient agricultural village. In 2012 the company received the New World Winery award as the best international winery of the year from Wine Enthusiast magazine, becoming famous over the years in the world of Israeli wine and beyond. The 16 vineyards are grown on the Golan Heights and one in the Upper Galilee. It is made with Sauvignon Blanc grapes whose vinification requires that a small percentage of wine is fermented in French oak barrels, this ensures that the drink acquires structure and complexity.

An excellent white that presents itself with an extraordinary fruity olfactory profile, full of sensations of green apple, passion fruit, melon and lime, enriched by delicate hints of flint. The taste is in perfect harmony with the nose, with fruity and fresh perceptions, a deep sip, medium-bodied and pleasantly persistent.

Definitely a perfect aperitif goblet, Golan Sauvignon Blanc also goes perfectly with fish and shellfish and is also perfect to accompany cured meats and poultry, or to try with ethnic cuisine and cheeses.

Winery history

Founded in 1923 by an initial group of growers who chose an ancient 16th-century farmhouse in Cornaiano, the winery has evolved into a cooperative bringing together about 200 families. The ancient underground cellars and historic buildings coexist with modern facilities: harvesting and winemaking are managed with care for each individual vineyard to highlight local specificities.

Production philosophy

The winery aims to showcase historic local varieties and to interpret international varieties in a way that reflects the local terroir. Sustainability is central: targeted agronomic practices, reduced use of mineral fertilizers, energy-saving measures and the introduction of lighter bottles to reduce emissions.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards are located mainly in the Oltradige and the Bassa Atesina, on morainic and porphyric soils. Some crus and sites mentioned include Gschleier, Plattenriegl, Montiggl and Mazon, known for their diversity of exposure and soil.

Awards and recognitions

The winery and individual wines have received national and international recognition: for example, the Trattmann Pinot Noir Riserva has been listed among wines awarded "3 Bicchieri" by Gambero Rosso for consecutive years; the Vigna Ganger Pinot Noir Riserva has received very high scores from Wine Advocate; the Gschleier Alte Reben Vernatsch has been highlighted by Decanter among notable wines.
