Netofa

Seder 2020

April 7, 2020April 7, 2020 / Avi Davidowitz / Leave a comment

Wine writing is something that I take pleasure in ordinarily. It allows me to crystallize my thoughts about whatever topic it is that I am writing about. If I happen to be writing about specific bottles, as opposed to a general topic, it actually helps me to commit the notes to memory - as well … Continue reading Seder 2020

Netofa Winery Visit – April 2019

April 22, 2019April 22, 2019 / Avi Davidowitz / 1 Comment

The slightly more relaxed pace of Chol Hamoed gives me the opportunity to catch up on a whole bunch of witting. One of the few wineries consistently putting out not only excellent wines but also providing excellent value is Netofa. Year after year Netofa appears on pretty much everyone's QPR list - and this year … Continue reading Netofa Winery Visit – April 2019

Blind Tastings with David Raccah and friends

December 10, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / Leave a comment

When I visit the US, I usually spend some quality time with fellow wine-lovers who I get to see too infrequently. But with limited time (and funds), I basically stick to the NY/NJ area each trip to be close to my family. That makes visiting with friends from other areas a real treat. Luckily David … Continue reading Blind Tastings with David Raccah and friends

Mid October Trip to the US

October 29, 2018April 22, 2019 / Avi Davidowitz / 1 Comment

Over the last year I have started visiting the US more and more - primarily to have the opportunity to spend time with my grandmother who is 94 and my parents and siblings who I see far too infrequently. I also usually get a chance to enjoy wines with friends that I also see all … Continue reading Mid October Trip to the US

RCC Israel #22 – Av 5778

July 11, 2018July 11, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 2 Comments

As Ashkenazic customs of the 9 days prohibit the consumption of wine even on Rosh Chodesh Av we had the RCC brought forward by a couple of days to accommodate. While every dish that we had was wonderful (and beautifully plated), the clear star of the night for me was the dual preparation of Flat … Continue reading RCC Israel #22 – Av 5778

RCC Israel #21

June 13, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 1 Comment

This month Bracha cooked solo as Uri is off traveling with his lovely wife - and she did a wonderful job as usual. My favorite dish of the night was the corn gnocchi served on a puree of lamb bacon and greens topped with a sous vide egg - excellent stuff! My thanks to Andy … Continue reading RCC Israel #21

2018 White Festival at the Hertzlia Marina

May 10, 2018May 10, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 1 Comment

This is a festival I really enjoy going to every year. I happen to love the Marina in general as a setting - super chill and relxed - plus there are 3 decent kosher restaurants that are in the connected Arena Mall - Bistro 56, Lechem Basar & Papagaio Prime, so you can take a … Continue reading 2018 White Festival at the Hertzlia Marina

Rosé Season is here – and is promising!

March 27, 2018April 2, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / Leave a comment

Each year as Pesach and spring approach,  people start talking about Rosé. This makes sense especially in Israel where we have already seen the mercury hit above 34 °C  (93 °F)  a couple of times. I am not really going to go on about the various ways that Rosé is made - I think it is not … Continue reading Rosé Season is here – and is promising!

RCC Israel #18

March 20, 2018March 20, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / Leave a comment

Atter a couple of months of moving around we returned to our normal meeting place at the Shuk Cook - Uri Zaltzman's apartment where he and Bracha Arnold prepared a truly excellent meal. Every single dish worked and was excellent - with a number of dishes going on my favorites list! From a wine perspective … Continue reading RCC Israel #18

RCC Israel #16

January 15, 2018January 15, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 1 Comment

Our all Israeli RCC -Israel Shvat is a wrap - and it was spectacular! The food of Bracha Arnold has really never been better - every single bite was delicious. We also had some excellent surprises from the "bonus" bottles that were brought by participants - including a first taste of the new 2017 Latour … Continue reading RCC Israel #16
