“For years, we’ve sold grapes to various wineries and the wines made from them have received much praise. In 1999 we decided to set up a winery and produce our own wine. From then until today, we have made sure that the wine is made exclusively from our vineyard grapes. The uniqueness of our wines is that they contain 100% of the grapes of the variety. The proximity to the winery and the dedicated care of the vineyard, contribute to the preparation of quality wines and all this with the professional help of winemaker Kobi Toch.”
At the winery, you can enjoy a variety of wines: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sangiovese, Shiraz, Marselan, Petite Sirah – reds, and Roussanne – white. The winery produces about 5,000 bottles a year, all on the purity of the variety.
