Does anyone know what the current wine deals are in the TLV duty free? I have someone going through there tomorrow and want to have them pick up some bottles for me. Ideally looking in the 25-45/bottle range

While not my favorite wine, it is definitely my favorite family compromise wine: Zion Wineries Dolev Red Moscato.

I find it acceptable, as it is not as sweet as other Moscatos, and has a bit of sourness to it, while kids actually like it very much, and DW finds acceptable.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I know ITS  the most polarizing wine in the kosher world.
 But I want to know if I should buy this 2nd gen for someome that I know who loves the cave. I'm not looking to educate him on quality wines, just want him to appriciate my gift.

Been bringing this bottle of Cave home for some time, while my wife kept saying it's not good at all... It's all the hype and the wine price fits the narrative...

Today our best bottle to date that we agree on is RED C
What do you say ?
