Castel Grand Vin 2018 97 points
Raziel Winery Red 2018 97 points

The highest scoring white wine was:
Shpera White Signature 2019 95 points
Flam, Sea Horse, and Yatir also scored 95 points and the Golan Heights Winery, Tulip and Vitkin wines scored 94 points. These, collectively, are probably the highest scores ever for Israeli wines from a reputable critic.
