Notes: Sustainable Farming
Galil Mountain was established as a joint venture in 2000 between world-renowned Golan Heights Winery and Kibbutz Yiron. Galil Mountain cultivates six vineyards with varying topography and climate conditions that all contribute to high-quality winemaking. Planted at elevations up to 2,800 feet, the vines enjoy warm summer days and cool nights, and snow and frost in winter. Soils vary from limestone to flint, terra rossa and basalt. Like Golan Heights Winery, the vineyards of Galil Mountain Winery were among the first to receive accredited sustainable certification under the rigorous and renowned LODI RULES program. Light green in color with aromas of tropical fruit, white peach and refined herbs. A fresh wine with pleasant acidity, a velvety texture and a burst of tropical and herbaceous flavors typical from the land of the Galilee.
