Bartenura makes something called Asti which is much nicer then the regular blue bottle.
Nicer bottle ? Or better taste ? I'm pretty sure blue bottle tastes better if I remember correctly.

Nicer bottle for sure. DW prefers the taste of Asti to the regular blue bottle.

Going to a birthday party/lunch this Shabbos in Israel.  I  got all the wines picked up but the birthday lady herself likes Moscato. Can anyone recommend a nice one?
Something besides Bartenura.  Thanks.
I doubt you'll find something better, they made a red version you can try or Joyvin red is a similar category I think. (Could be Bartenura Malvasia I'm thinking of)

Don't know or care anything about any monopoly.

The issue with the letter is the statement of:

Its a statement of fact. The world together with the Canadian Government does not recognize Israeli sovereignty over those areas. Why does this surprise you. The Canadian wine regulator requires truth in labeling. The distributor discovered that these wines are not in compliance with the regulations. The wines are produced in occupied territories according to Canadian Government standards.
