David Cohen's passion for beer began over 20 years ago, at a time that the American microbrewery scene was first hitting the East Coast of the US. After making Aliya, David's dream of brewing beer in the Holy Land became a reality with the creation of The Dancing Camel Brewery. The brew/pub is nestled in the heart of Tel Aviv in an old grain storage facility built in the 1930's. 
"Our goal", says David "is to make exciting beer. Beer that makes people think and smile. Sure we make traditional styles but they are nuanced in a way that is distinctly Israeli. This country is rich in herbs, fruits and spices that belong in beer but have never been tried before. I want to help define what Israeli beer means. You know when I'll be satisfied? When I hear people in London, Brussels and Seattle talking about how exciting Israeli beers are."
Currently, Dancing Camel beer can be found in Israeli restaurants, pubs and fine wine shops all over Israel and has been reviewed internationally in Sweden, Japan, Germany, Russia, England, Canada and of course, the United States.

Carmel Winery is the historic winery of Israel. It was founded in 1882 by Baron Edmond de Rothschild, owner of Chateau Lafite in Bordeaux. 
Carmel owns the two largest wineries in Israel, at Rishon Le Zion, south of Tel Aviv and at Zichron Ya'acov, south of Haifa. Each has deep underground cellars built by Rothschild in the 19th century.
Carmel also has two small, state-of-the-art wineries close to key vineyards, to allow production of small quantities of handcrafted wines. These are Kayoumi Winery, situated in the Upper Galilee, and Yatir Winery, in the northeastern Negev. 
The story of Carmel represents the story of Israel, and the recent developments of Carmel's wines, symbolizes the revolution of Israeli wine in recent years.

VINEYARDS:

Carmel Winery has 1,400 hectares (3,472 acres) of vineyards, which cover the land of Israel from the Upper Galilee in the north, to the Negev in the south. Carmel's winemakers can therefore choose from vineyards with different terroirs from all the wine regions in Israel. Carmel has a particularly strong vineyard presence in the cooler climate Upper Galilee, from where many of the leading wines are sourced.

The Dalton Winery is set in the beautiful green, mountainous country of the Upper Galilee, five kilometres from the Lebanese border, overlooking the Hermon Mountain.

The Winery was established in 1995 when the Haruni family from England came to settle in Israel. Initially the winery was situated in makeshift premises in Moshav Kerem Ben Zimra and produced some 20,000 bottles, but now it occupies its own home overlooking the Hula Valley and currently makes about 800,000 bottles annually.

THE WINEMAKERS

The winemaking team at Dalton is lead by winemaker Naama Mualem, Na'ama grew up in the north of Israel and comes from a family with close links to the wine industry. Na'ama joined Dalton in 2002 after completing her studies at the world famous Roseworthy faculty at the University of Adelaide, and with work experience in California and Australia. Naama is aided by Australian wine consultant John Worontschak. John has worked with the winery since its establishment in 1995 and has offered the winery both technical expertise and an international perspective in winemaking.

The winemaking philosophy is essentially new world fruit driven wines as befits a country with an abundance of sunshine, though lately the winery has been looking to develop some of its premium wines into more classical styles reminiscent of the European wineries.

THE REGION

Dalton Winery and its vineyards are located in an exclusive area of the Upper Galilee (Merom Hagalil). The vineyards of Kerem Ben Zimra reach an altitude of between 800 - 900 metres above sea level. This volcanic plateau combining high altitude, optimum soil conditions and a unique climate provide the ideal conditions for growing grapes in Israel. The cold winters provide an essential dormant period for the vines, while hot summer days with cool summer nights enable the grapes to mature at a steady rate, factors which allow us to grow excellent grapes for excellent wines.

Dalton is the only winery situated in this area, and can boast that it is one of the only wineries in Israel located minutes from all its vineyards. The proximity to the vineyards allows the winemaker to constantly monitor the vines throughout the year and, closer to vintage, decide the optimal time for harvest, it also ensures that the grapes arrive in the winery immediately after harvesting and do not have to suffer the indignity of traveling many hours in the midday sun, before they are processed.

Since the establishment of the Dalton, the Upper Galilee area has been transformed into a successful mainstream tourist destination. Surrounded by beauty and history, the Dalton Winery is close to a wide variety of attractions, many of great religious and historical significance. The area is distinctively picturesque, offering views of the surrounding vineyards, the Hula Valley and the snow-capped Hermon Mountain. Visitors are most welcome.

Kfar Tabor is an agricultural settlement in the heart of the fertile Galilee. The settlement was founded over 100 years ago and one of its prime occupations were vineyards the growing of grapes. Its vineyards soon became famous as suppliers of quality grapes to the countries leading wineries.

It was no accident that the pioneers of Kfar Tabor decided to plant vineyards since the soil and climate are very suitable to growing grapes and the Galilee has been a center of wine producers since the days of antiquity. The winery is located near the Tabor Mountain in a village that was founded by the Baron De Rotchild The custom of growing grapes for the production of wines has been continued in Kfar Tabor ever since and to day its vineyards of grow, Merlot, Cabarnet-Sauvignon and other types of grapes.

Kfar Tabor is wine growing country and it supplied the needs of the countries wineries for a long, long time. For a hundred years they were the suppliers of raw materials but since 1999 they are also producing wine of their own.

In 1997 four enterprising families, Sela, Korman, Pelag and Ben Tanhum decided to set op their own winery by using the produce of the Kfar Tabor vineyards. They called it Tabor.  They bought the most up to date wine producing equipment and hired Arie Nesher a Russian wine expert as the Chief Wine Maker who immigrated to Israel in 1990. When he came to Israel he was immediately hired first by Carmel Mizrahi and then by Tishbri and he was also a founding partner in the Caesarea Winery, from where he was hired by the new Tabor Winery.

Tabor Winery is considered a quality producer of wines, its wines were enthusiastically received by the public and by 2005 produced 300,000 bottles of wine a year of which 40,000 were exported. Its Kosher Cabernet- Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Shiraz wines are all produced from the best vineyards of Kfar Tabor.

Oren Sela, the CEO of Tabor Winery "Since our establishment we have made it a point to ensure the quality of our wines, that is our hallmark and that is the main reason for our constant growth. Our wines grace the tables of Israel, Western Europe and the USA and we are constantly developing new wines. Our vintage is considered one of the finest wines in Israel".

The Tabor Winery is not only a producer of quality wines it is also a tourist attraction, since 2001 it has opened a visitors center which shows the whole process of the production of wine. Kfar Tabor's Visitors Center is located just next to the winery and it also includes a marzipan museum, a chocolate store, a restaurant and a pub. The Visitors Center is open all week and it is possible to arrange tours for groups and individuals.

The Winery’s barrel cellar is located in an ancient cave that was discovered during the process of establishing the winery. The natural damp conditions and constant temperature facilitate the high-quality aging process of the winery’s wines.

Psagot Winery has steadily developed its wine production, and the 2007 grape harvest will produce over 60,000 bottles of premium wines. Psagot hopes to produce over 100,000 bottles of wine annually by 2009. American partners in the winery assisted in the winery’s expansion and increased production quantity.

In 1999 Professor Ben Ami Bravdo and his former student Professors Oded Shoseyov, both faculty members of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem decided to establish Karmei Yosef Winery that produces BRAVDO wines. Bravdo and Shoseyov’s wealth of knowledge and experience is now translated to the creation of high quality wine. The winery is located in the heart of the vineyard at the foot-hills of the majestic village of Karmei Yosef, on the way to Jerusalem. The Shoseyov family began growing grape vines 120 years ago. The cool summer nights and the limestone rich soil at the 50 acres Shoseyov estate are known to produce fine wine grapes back to the time of the Solomon’s kingdom.
The wine was produced with advanced technology implemented both in the vineyard and the winery. The grapes are grown and harvested at optimal conditions to maximize their fruit flavor.
Water stress combined with sunlight exposure of the grapes is one of the unique treatments in the vineyard that create aromatic grapes in the Shoseyov estate. The unique fermentation process is conducted at a low temperature profile, which carries out the full potential of the grape in each of the stages in the process. The wine is aged in small oak barrels, mostly French and some American balancing its flavor to perfection. The wine is unfiltered to ensure an aroma pleasant to the classic palate.

The Valley of Ella is well-known throughout the world as the place of the famous battle between David and Goliath. In fact, in ancient times, the valley was no less famous for its wines.

The historical tradition involving vine growth and wine production, which was forgotten for hundreds of years, was revived in the last decade, thanks to the determination of a small group of visionaries.

The opening of the Ella Valley Wineries brought back to the region a wine culture that was thousands of years old, with the help of 21st century tools and skills.

The principles underlying the work of the founders of the Winery were to produce excellent wine, relying on the unique qualities and conditions of the area; and for the wine to be kosher, which would enable its dissemination to large publics in Israel and across the world.

 The Ella Valley Wineries are considered one of the best and most advanced in Israel, with a production of over 200,000 bottles a year, all of which are premium quality wines. Approximately 40% of the production is exported, which is unprecedented in Israel's wine industry.

In addition to the significant export to Europe and the US, the Ella Valley Wineries are one of the few wineries in Israel that have succeeded to make its way into the Japanese market, which is known as being difficult to please and perfectionist.

The Ella Valley Wineries produce the following red wines: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, Petite Syrah, and Syrah.

The wineries have encountered great success with the following white wines: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscat.

The Ella Valley Wineries produce two series of premium wines:

Ella Valley - A quality brand, which has become very popular among wine aficionados at home, in restaurants and in wine shops, both among critics and among wine journalists in Israel and abroad. The series includes most of the types of wine produced by the Ella Valley Wineries, from various harvest years.

Vineyard's Choice - This is the Wineries' luxury brand. It uses the most exclusive grapes, which are picked in the best vineyards. This wine has undergone a long aging process, both in barrels and in bottles, prior to its release on the market. Each year, the winemaker decides which wines will be attributed the exclusive and binding VC label, which is why this series includes different wines each year.

Binyamina Winery is the fourth largest winery in Israel and it produces some 2.8 million bottles annually under several labels. These are delivered to specialty wine stores, marketing chains, hotels, catering companies and restaurants in Israel and abroad.

The winery currently produces wine under four main labels - The Chosen, Binyamina Reserve, Yogev and Teva, as well as special limited edition wines and liqueurs. We regard each of our wine labels as reflecting a part of an entire enterprise that strives for and ultimately achieves product perfection. 

Our Labels:

The Chosen -a reflection of our winemaker's creativity. This is Binyamina Winery's high-end label that includes six wines, each named for one of the Hoshen Stones (the biblical term for the carefully chosen precious stones set in the breastplate of the High Priest). During the production process the winemaker meticulously oversees the manual harvesting and sorting of the grapes, production processes that rely on gravitational forces rather than on mechanical processes, and the wine's long aging. 
 

Binyamina Reserve - the winery's flagship label which reflects the vineyard and its qualities. This label includes eight red and white varietal wines produced from grapes that grow mainly in our Upper and Lower Galilee vineyards. The unique expression of vineyard qualities is the dominant feature in these wines.

Yogev - Binyamina's Yogev label is tribute to our winegrowers. In Hebrew, Yogev means farmer, toiler of the soil. This label reflects the winegrower's contribution to the production of quality wines. Yogev wines are aged in used barrels in order to preserve the natural qualities of the winegrowers' fruit. As a token of our appreciation, we have included the winegrowers' names on the back labels of all Yogev wines.

Teva - Binyamina's most popular label that we regard as reflecting the consumer.  This label includes varietal wines, each attributed with a nature that wine consumers can relate to while we cater to the personal taste of each consumer.

Binyamina Winery strives to promote a wine culture in Israel and is regarded as a daring pioneer in the wide range of varieties it offers its customers under its different labels, which include classics from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot to Shiraz, Chardonnay and Emerald Riesling as well as less known varieties such as Pinotage, Tempranillo and Viognier. There is no doubt that even in the rich and diverse wine world it is important to constantly strive to diversify even further and to offer attractive options to meet developing and increasingly sophisticated consumer tastes. And nobody does it better than Binyamina!
