Galil Mountain 2008 Yiron Red (Galilee)
- Editors' Choice
- Kosher
- $22
Attractive and layered with a blueberry and raspberry fruit core accented by notes of sweet spice, orange oil, ashy tobacco and a touch of dark purple florals. The gripping tannins are fine and balanced, with skin-driven fruit flavors dominating the palate and a fudgy chocolate and sweet spice note lingering on the finish.

Galil Mountain 2007 Yiron Kosher Dry Red Wine (Galilee)
- Kosher
- $22
Made from 62% Cab Sauv, 31% Merlot and 7% Syrah, this delicious blend offers a fleck of crushed rose-petal florals to the dark fruit core of blackberry, date and chocolate covered black cherry. Full but firmly structured, with roasted cocoa nib, cigar box spice and leather flavors lingering on the finish. Good now, but should hold through 2014.

Black berry, fig, cocoa and sweet cigar spice start you off on the nose of this wine. The soft and silky mouth offers more of the same, with a lingering sweet spice and creamy vanilla flavor that stays through the finish. Drink now.

Galil Mountain 2007 Avivim Kosher White (Galilee)

A blend of 69% Viognier and 31% Chardonnay, this is a ripe but easy-drinking white with a sweet oak-driven core. Juicy peach, melon and almond skin in the bouquet transition to more tropical fruit driven flavors in the medium-weight creamy mouth.

Soft strawberry, white cherry and a touch of peach appear in the bouquet, with riper flavors of strawberry and cream laced with sweet spice developing in the mouth. Balanced and refreshing; drink now.

Galil Mountain 2006 Yiron Kosher Red (Galilee)
- Kosher

Dried raspberry dusted with cocoa powder starts this wine off, while flavors of red plum and raspberry sauce round things out in the mouth. Fine sandpapery tannins linger throughout the otherwise creamy mouthfeel, and the vanilla-laden finish lingers appropriately. Drink now.
