I have had the recent pleasure of interacting with Yoav Poizner, wine maker of Poizner Winery, based in Zichron Ya'akov.
(ANY Israeli winemaker who wants to write guest posts - one or many - on this blog - is more than welcome and should simply email me.)
What follows is Part One of a series of guest posts from Yoav, as he introduces himself, his winery and his thoughts about winemaking and wine marketing in his own words. We've asked for photos and wine samples to share even more wtih you!
And here's a link to Rogov's tasting note of Yoav's Merlot.
My name is Yoav Poizner, and I'm 27. I'm a 5th generation of an agricultural familly that mostly dealt with vines. The familly is a member in Agudat Hacormim which is the owner of Carmel Winery - the largest winery in Israel.In 2002 after I was discharged from the army, me and my father decided to take one step further. We thought that as grape growers we should at least try to make wine.The first year we did 200 botlles in the basment of our house, with no appropriate conditions such as air-condiotion, barrels, and so.The next year I went traveling through South America. During my travels I discovered the amazing wine industry of Chile and Mendoza Argentina. When I came back, I decided to go and study Winemaking.In 2004 I was a student of the 1st course of the Tel-Chai College of Winemaking.Since 2004 the winery has expanded a litlle bit, and now we are making aprox. 3000 botlles per year. All our wine ages for at least 12 months in French Oak, and is botlled under the name Poizner Winery.Up to 2005 we made only Merlot and Cabernet. Since 2006 we are making also Carignan from old vines, and a blend of Syrah, Shiraz and Carignan.In 2007 we will have also Malbec, and we hope to have by 2010 Morvedre and Petit Verdot.
