More about Richard:
I founded Israeli Wine Direct in 2007 to introduce Americans to great wines and winemakers from Israel, The Birthplace of Wine.
Wine was born in the eastern Mediterranean, of which Israel is a part. In fact, the very first thing Noah did when he got off the Ark was to plant a vineyard!
Grapes in some of the 6 wines at the event are from the valley where David killed Goliath; others are from the Galilee where Jesus and his followers spent time teaching and preaching.
After nearly a 2,000 year break in wine production, there are now more than 200 wineries in Israel. IWD imports wines from the top premium small producers from across Israel. When you taste them, you are tasting The Future of Wine History.
