Customer Reviews

This is the bible for Israeli wines

Rogov's book is the bible for Israeli wines. Israeli wines were recently highlighted by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. He rated many wines at 90+. Rogov's book gives detailed tasting notes and vintage information, albeit his ratings are slightly inflated. But the taste of many of these wines are not. The big problems is that it is hard to find many of these wines in the US. But if you try hard, you can find most, except from the smallest boutique wineries.

L'Chaim

So useful on our recent trip to Israel....was pleased we'd bought this before we got to the wineries. There are some real wonderful vintages to look for.

3rd Edition of Rogovs Guide

This is the 3rd Edition I have of this Guide. I find this edition easier to navigate then the previous editions. There is a lot of information in here regarding Israeli wines.

Not only for the snobs

A depth analysis of the Israeli wine industry + reviews of more than 1500 wines. Written by a real pro who thinks not only about what the snobs will like but what the average drinker will enjoy. A great guide for buying.

Professionalism Personified

Daniel Rogov's book puts Israeli wines where they should be - as interesting to all wine lovers. Better yet, the book is completely professional, as interesting and competently written as those of Hugh Johnson, Oz Clarke and Robert Parker. Worth reading for every lover of wine and for those with a special connection to Israel. My rating - tops!!
