If you long for a moment of disconnection and a true connection to peace and nature, now is the time to climb up the mountain and reach the young kibbutz, Pelech. Enjoy boutique wine, a breathtaking panoramic view and a breeze that is not found anywhere else in the country.
In the heart of a young kibbutz, between the landscapes of the Galilee and the remains of the old milking parlor, a winery was born that is much more than a place to drink wine. Pelech Winery is not just a place to sip wine, but a winery where agriculture, solidarity, and collaborative activity are poured into a glass.
A kibbutz-community winery founded in 2022 in the heart of Kibbutz Pelech in the Galilee, on the infrastructure of the old barn. The winery was established out of a desire to revive the kibbutz idea, but in a contemporary version – agriculture, community, collaborative activity, solidarity, and good wine. Itay Bay, the winery’s winemaker, brought with him professional knowledge from France and the experience of the Galilee wineries, and together they created a home for Mediterranean wines, with natural fermentation — an approach of “less intervention, more truth”.
The wine of Pelech Winery is a story about the kibbutz, land, and people who chose to blend social action with great wine.
Our most Instagram-mable dish: a glass of rosé, in front of an open Galilean view – no filter can recreate this!
Tip from the Western Galilee Now Team: Don’t miss the opportunity to ask the winery staff about the unique and inspiring way the new kibbutz was formed. And if you’ve already come all this way… want more sips? Skip to the next ridge and visit the wonderful Stern Winery in Kibbutz Tuval.
Western Galilee Now is a registered non-profit grassroots organization (NGO) promoting awareness and appreciation for the region’s boutique wines, beers, food and produce, along with its cultural diversity, its historic traditions and the area’s scenic routes nestled between the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea acting as a Chamber of Commerce to boutique tourism operators in the region.
We expose the visitors to the unique heritage and hospitality through workshops, culinary events, art, music, guides tours, festivals and also through our Tourist Information Center in Akko, owned by JNF USA which we were chosen to operate since Jan. 2016.
Our vision is to develop local and foreign tourism based on close cooperation between all the interested parties in the region.
