Visit to Yekev Shiloh Winery

Yesterday afternoon some of my kids and I walked down the hill from my house to the Yekev Shiloh Winery at the entrance to our industrial zone/shopping area. I correctly guessed that they'd enjoy the visit before taking the bus back to Jerusalem. 

We got there close to "closing time," so we didn't ask for a full tour and tasting. But they all agreed that they'd be back for the full "show." They found the public part of the Yekev very impressive and then bought a few bottles of wine, one of which was opened for us. We sat on their terrace enjoying the view and the wine.

The Chenin Blanc was perfect to drink on a spring afternoon. My wine maven kids described it as fruity, citrus taste. I just liked it. It was light and fine without food.

 

The Yekev also serves meat meals (strictly kosher of course) with wine. No doubt for meat I'd recommend, or prefer, a strong red wine.

If you want a tour, tasting and/or meal, it's best to make reservations:
