Recanati, Special Reserve White, 2018, Israel

Israel is not known as a hot bed of wine making, but it can make decent wine which this Recanati, Special Reserve White shows. Made with Roussanne and Marsanne its a good blend producing a medium bodied, dry white with decent length. You get aromas and flavours of stone fruit, pineapple and citrus with a slightly nutty undertone.

At £40 a bottle not many will try it and that’s understandable because at that price you should get more than this offers.
