In 1988, Eli Ben Zaken planted the first modern-day vineyard in the Judean Hills. Just four years later, Eli, his family and friends harvested the grapes for what would become his first wine: Grand Vin. The estate's vineyards are planted on the mountains of Jerusalem — facing the Mediterranean Sea at an altitude of 750 meters above sea level — in soil that is a combination of terra rossa, clay and limestone. Today, Castel owns over 400 acres of vineyards planted to Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Chardonnay. Eli and his family aim to create wines with a strong sense of place, but also a down-to-earth modesty.

“La Vie Rouge du Castel is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Syrah. The wine ages for one year in concrete tanks to preserve its wonderful fruit quality. Enticing aroas of blackberry, raspberr and black cherry plume from the glass. The palate is well-balanced with soft tannins and a refershing acidity. Enjoy with an Isreali Pasetl: spiced meat pie”
