On Sunday, July 11th, Allen, his wife and their friends, enjoyed their wine experience in Zichron Yaakov.  Our first winery was Tishbi Winery, where they had a private tour and tasting with me and met Golan and Jonathan Tishbi. They also had a tasting of the wine jams by Oshra Tishbi and loved her Mango Chardonnay jam. 

We walked around Ramat HaNadiv and they were all taken away with the beautifully organized Botanical Gardens.

We then traveled into Zichron Yaakov, to the house of Barak Dahan, the owner and winemaker of Somek Winery. They loved his dry-oaked, French traditional wines and the quaint atmosphere of Barak's home that has been in his family for 5 generations. 

At this point we were all very hungry and enjoyed Pizza at Café Nili on the Midrachov

As you can see from this picture, at the last winery, Amphorae Vineyards, Allen's group was spoiled by Reba with a wide selection of reds, including their newly released Unica label.  

They all enjoyed themselves immensely and had a nice nap on the ride back to Tel Aviv.
