Indigenous Wine Grape Varieties to Israel, featuring Professor Shivi Drori [The Jewish Drinking Show episode #183]
Description
Introduction
Grapes in Israel for the use of wine are nothing new. While it had been known that they were certainly ancient, especially as we read of the delegation of scouts in the 13th chapter in the book of Numbers finding massive bunches of grapes, recent work by Professor Elyashiv "Shivi" Drori has uncovered dozens of previously undocumented indigenous varieties of wine grapes in Israel, about which he shares on the 183rd episode of The Jewish Drinking Show.
Biography of Guest
Prof. Drori, a professor of chemical engineering and biotechnology at Ariel University, heads the university’s Samson Family Wine Research Center, Israel’s premier academic institute dedicated to grapevine and wine research. In addition to his research credentials as an agronomist, plant geneticist and oenologist, Drori is also the chief winemaker at Gva’ot Winery, a boutique producer whose wines have earned global acclaim.
