What if the future of Israeli wine lies in the hands of a single person? You'll be surprised to know that it almost does. In this episode of The Kosher Terroir, we sit down with Noa Maoz, a top agronomist and viticulturist from the Golan Heights, who shares her journey into viticulture and the evolving landscape of the Israeli wine industry. From combating Pierce's disease and leaf-roll virus to managing plant material for vineyard health, her expertise is evident.
Noa takes us through the critical factors in choosing the perfect vineyard site. From understanding the desired final product to the implications of climate and soil, Noa's insights are a treasure trove for anyone passionate about viticulture. She also explores the financial and operational challenges of planting in diverse terrains, providing a thorough perspective on what it takes to ensure optimal growing conditions.
Next, we demystify the art of rootstock selection and soil analysis with Noah as she debunks common misconceptions and emphasizes the importance of adapting rootstocks to various soil conditions. The historical context of grafting, particularly the fight against phylloxera, is also explored, shedding light on the varietals best suited for different Israeli regions.
The episode concludes with an examination of new bacterial threats and the industry's challenges due to inconsistent governmental support. This engaging discussion offers a comprehensive look at the dynamic world of Israeli viticulture and the strategic decisions driving its success.
