I considerate myself an amateur but I recently picked up a bottle for shabbos called "Isaac's Ram" which I thought was delicious. Even my wife who usually prefers late harvest Chenin Blanc to anything even semi dry really loved it.
Sounds good. I am in for one for shabbos. Thanks!

I find Yogev from Binyamina to be one of the best fitting for this criteria. Try the pink, red and blue label ones.

I'm in the mood for a good Chardonnay for shabbes.
something like the ramat hagalon organic Chardonnay.
buttery as a Chardonnay can get but also fruity as a Chardonnay 'may' get with a medium/heavy honey notes

[oiy, where has the good o'old harzog Russian river 2000, gone
miss it so much ]

any recommendations guys ?
