PROJECT PELE
“PELE” is a wine exclusively crafted for us in limited quantity by the Margalit Winery. The wine composition consists of 55% Margalit-Blanc and 45% Chardonnay grapes. Margalit Blanc is a unique breed discovered and cultivated by Assaf and Yair Margalit in their vineyard in Zichron Yaakov.
An Aromatic dry white wine
This is an aromatic dry white wine with high acidity and a solid body. The wine offers sweeping character with tropical characteristics that come from the Margalit-Blanc grapes combined with the minerality of the Chardonnay.
This is the second time the "PELE" wine has been produced for the Helena at the Caesarea Port and Uri Buri restaurants. The first wine from the 2015 vintage was a mix of 80% Chardonnay grapes and 20% Margalit-Blanc.
The name was chosen by us and a special label was produced to honour the unique breed of the Margalit Blanc grape.
