Yaniv Kimchi – High-tech professional, born in Haifa. Has traveled the world for years and tasted wine. Throughout his life, Yaniv explored the effects that matter and spirit combined have. This passion led to the idea behind their wine, where music directly influences the quality and taste of the wine. The winery keeps to uncompromising quality of winemaking from fine organic grapes that come from kibbutz Tzivon’s vineyard near mount Meron, combined with unique energizing processes, such as playing music to the wine throughout its making and aging process. The process is based on the winemakers’ 15 years of experience in combining energetic qualities and winemaking. Today, 30,000 bottles are made at the winery. The grape varieties used are: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Shiraz and Nebbiolo.
