SEGAL'S CHARDONNAY SPECIAL RESERVE 2021

In 1925, Yankel Hirsh Segal and his family emigrated to Israel and settled in Tel Aviv. Brothers Elhanan and Yehezkel established Israel s first distillery in the German colony known as Sharona, or Kirya, in Tel Aviv. Their expertise led them to be invited by the French rulers to set up distilleries in Beirut and Damascus in the 1930s. In 1954, the family decided to focus on wine production, moving the winery to Ramle and naming it Zvi Vineyard, later renamed Segal Wines. The winery s bottles bear the Segal wine logo in Zvi Hirsh s handwriting. Barkan Group acquired Segal s in 2001 but allowed it to operate independently with its unique production process. Winemaker Avi Feldstein, a former poet, journalist, and barman, learned the craft from experienced winemakers and now oversees the winery s development. Pineapple and lemon aromas, fresh, fruity and crisp flavor, and long, pleasant finish.
