This is an article I wrote a few years ago about the history of Israeli wines and its current state of play. Of course I give Dalton and our wines quite alot of credit.

The last day of vintage finally arrived with the first clouds of winter finally rolling in. This year was a little weird, we started about two weeks later than usual and had 3.5 cm of rain suddenly in the middle of the harvest, but in the end the weather warmed up and we finally finished on schedule.

If you look at the back of any bottle of Dalton wine you will see a cluster of little medallions at the bottom of the label, they are the stamps of the various rabbinical authorities that supervise the Kashrut of our wines. This is a brief article to explain what it is all about.

Over the Sukkot holiday, the winery will be open for visitors as usual. This holiday we will be able to fully celebrate the new harvest, as the winery will be working most days bringing in grapes. As usual for the adults we will offer a guided tour of the winery and abroad tasting of our portfolio. We will also have a full range of activities for children including an arts and crafts corner, a bouncy castle and a freshly squeezed grape juice whenever possible.

The solar panels were finally completed and approved at beginning of September, since then we have been generating electricity at the rate of about 600kWh per day and generating about 1000 shekels per day of income.
