WINE DESCRIPTION
Barkan Classic Sauvignon Blanc is a refreshing and crisp white wine produced by Barkan Winery, one of Israel's leading wineries. The grapes are sourced from select vineyards in the Galilee region, known for its high altitude and cool climate, which allows for slow ripening and optimal flavor development. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing and cold fermentation to preserve the wine's natural acidity and fruitiness. The resulting wine is a classic expression of Sauvignon Blanc, with aromas of citrus and tropical fruits, a lively acidity, and a clean, refreshing finish.
