The Rich History of Israeli Merlot
To truly appreciate Israeli Merlot, it helps to understand its rich legacy. While Israel is well-known for its diverse landscapes and rich history, its wine industry has flourished in recent decades. In fact, between 2013 and 2021, the Israeli wine industry saw a significant growth of 50%, establishing itself as a reputable player in the global wine market.
The Merlot grape, which originally comes from France, has found an excellent home in Israel's warm and sunny regions. The combination of a Mediterranean climate and unique volcanic soil contributes to the balanced structure and depth of flavor in Israeli Merlot.
This grape varietal has become a symbol of Israeli wineries for a good reason. With a smooth, velvety texture and lively fruit notes, every sip tells a story, from the vine to your glass.
