Rogov on Israwinexpo
Posted on February 29, 2008 - Filed Under Rogov, Wine Events, Wine Festivals | Leave a Comment
Daniel Rogov has his thoughts of Israwinexpo here.
He was interviewed by Israeli portal Walla! here (in Hebrew only, it was quite interesting for Dovrei Ivrit).

Stay tuned for more photos, a write up and more, of my recent visit to a handful of Israeli wineries.

ISRAWINEXPO 2008 is here
Posted on February 27, 2008 - Filed Under Israeli wine industry, Wine Events, Wine Festivals | Leave a Comment
Sorry for the slow pace of this blog, which will continue over the next two weeks, as I have guests from the wine trade (but lacking exposure in Israeli wine) in over the next two weeks. Hopefully, over the next month, I will have some interesting posts of a few northern wineries.
However, yesterday, today, and [...]
Georgia newspaper picks Galil Mountain Chard as “Wine of Day”
Posted on February 27, 2008 - Filed Under Wineries | Leave a Comment
The Savannah Morning News picked the Galil Mountain Chard as the “Wine of the Day” for January 30, 2008. Saying that it could fool anyone into thinking it’s a California Chardonnay in a blind tasting, I have to admit that I would be very interested in trying. Israeli wines definitely would make a useful blind [...]

Castel in the Wall Street Journal
Posted on February 25, 2008 - Filed Under Wineries | Leave a Comment
I’m up visiting wineries up north, but in the meantime read this fascinating article about Eli Ben-Zaken and Domaine du Castel from the Wall Street Journal. Why does it seem that Castel is the only winery with a good PR strategy (and, of course, one of Israel’s best!)

From the Vancouver straight.com. The prices seem a bit high, I must admit (although it is Canadian dollars).

Israeli wines take a big, bold leap forward
By Jurgen Gothe
Jaded wine palates—and questing ones—take note: there’s exciting stuff going on at your nearby government liquor store, and it’s centred on the Med. Israeli wines [...]

Mark Squires on Israeli wine
Posted on February 8, 2008 - Filed Under Israeli wine industry | Leave a Comment
Richard, a nice American blogger who also shows the love to Israeli wine, interviewed Mark Squires on his blog Israel Wine Direct (the only other Israeli wine blog, but missing out on a ton since Richard’s in America - but he’s scheduled to bring great Israeli wine to American direct consumers).
The interview is worth paying [...]

Posted on February 3, 2008 - Filed Under Kosher and Jewish, Wineries | Leave a Comment
Will this be good news for Diaspora wine drinkers? Teperberg 1870, Israel’s 4th largest winery (but yet barely known outside of Israel, especially in North America, where so few is imported) has just appointed a new chief marketing manager. From the Jerusalem Post:
ONE OF Israel’s veteran wineries, Teperberg 1870, has appointed Benny Cohen-Weinberg, 39, as [...]
