Yatir Forest

Yatir Forest is the flagship wine of Yatir Winery and one of Israel’s most acclaimed and collectable red wines. Produced only from the finest vineyard parcels of each vintage, it represents the pinnacle of the winery’s winemaking philosophy, with a focus on complexity, elegance, and exceptional ageing potential.

Crafted in a classic Bordeaux-inspired style, Yatir Forest is typically a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, sourced from select vineyards in the Judean Hills. The wine is renowned for its depth, structure, and balance, combining concentrated fruit with refined tannins and remarkable longevity.

Full-bodied and richly layered, it displays aromas and flavours of dark berries, blackcurrant, plum, and spice, complemented by subtle notes of oak, herbs, and earthy complexity. The palate is powerful yet elegant, with a long, persistent finish that continues to evolve with age.

Widely recognised by critics, Yatir Forest has achieved scores of 90 points or higher from Wine Advocate for nine consecutive vintages, cementing its reputation as one of Israel’s leading fine wines. With an ageing potential of well over a decade, it is a wine designed for both immediate enjoyment and long-term cellaring.
