Days of Wine and Rockets
Manage episode 455286950 series 3583252
In this episode, Benji and Avi sat down with Alex Haruni, owner of the fabulous Dalton Winery in the north of Israel and all around great guy. We talked with Alex about wine in general, what's special about making wine in Israel, and the particular challenge of making wine in Israel when rockets are falling in your vineyards. We learned as much as we drank (a lot)!
While describing his riveting and globe-spanning family history, Alex discussed the fascinating story of the crypto-Jews of Mashhad. An illuminating article on the subject, written by his aunt, can be found here.
