 Welcome back to my YouTube channel, this is Daniel Rossell here bringing you another video today from a fantastic boutique winery in Israel, hard to believe that only a few decades ago Israeli wine was not a major force in the wine drinking world, now very firmly established as a new-ish terror. Where we are today is the Nana winery, maybe hard to tell from the scenery just behind me here, but I'm actually located in the heart of the Negev Desert which dominates the south of Israel, and this winery is located just outside of Mitspe Ramon which is one of the southern towns in Israel, the southernmost town in Israel is the city of Elat, but there is another town called Mitspe Ramon, a town of only a few thousand people actually started out as a camp for people building road workers constructing the road leading to southern Israel, and today Mitspe Ramon is best known for the Matesh Ramon, the crater formed by a glacier movement that's in the area, but this particular winery, the Nana winery, is located just off road 171 for those who've been really paying attention to what I've been uploading on this YouTube channel, in the summer of last year I visited Gvish Eser road 10 which is the Israel-Egypt border road, and the road leading down to that from Mitspe Ramon which is called, which is road 171 is probably in all my expeditions in Israel, the far reaches of the north of the country, the south, probably the most remote landscape I've seen, you don't see power plants, you don't see people, there are stretches of kilometers where you don't see anything leading all the way down to the intersection which Gvish Eser which is the Israel-Egypt border road. Now this huge landscape here for producing wine is a lot more expansive than I mean it literally stretches for kilometers that way, the people working on the wines are getting around in these kind of mopeds, but they actually grow all the wine they produce here for their mixture of red wines, white wines, and rosé. They don't use artificial yeast, all the yeast that is of course an integral part of the winemaking process is what's just literally coming on the grapes from the air so therefore their wines change taste a little bit depending on the year they were bottled. Now speaking about bottling, unfortunately they're not yet bottling on site here just outside of Mitspe Ramon, currently the grapes they harvest, they're shipping them all up to the north of Israel, then doing the bottling there, but this wine can be found throughout Israel and this winery, the Nana winery which is named after the childhood nickname of the pioneer winemaker here is that well known, it's rosé is very well known, I'm personally a bit of a rosé fan myself so it might be a bias but certainly they make some very good rosé as well as the other types of wine. The water supply here is coming from Mitspe Ramon and as I've said they've been in the winemaking business since 2007 and they're now selling both throughout Israel and directly to consumers also on their website. The cost of the wine tasting like the wine tasting I did at Katlab a few days ago is 90 shackles that approximates to about 20 US dollars at the time I'm recording this video and that'll get you three types of wine, you can of course try a red wine or a white wine and a rosé or you can focus on the type of wine that you're most into so you can have three different types of red wine if that suits your fancy more they do have a cheese plate for sale as any self-respecting wine tasting tour does and if you're just located about 10 minutes drive outside of Mitspe Ramon so if you are visiting the crater or just visiting Mitspe Ramon which is definitely worth a visit in its own right definitely worth that making the visit out here to check out the winery at Nana. Thanks for watching today's video from the Nana winery in the south of Israel if you do want to get more videos from me about interesting sites and places and hopefully forthcoming also people in Jerusalem and in Israel then do consider subscribing to the YouTube channel. Thank you for watching the video.
