Step into the sun-drenched hills of Israel's historic wine country as we continue our exploration of La Forêt Blanche Winery with CEO Yaakov Bris. This intimate conversation reveals how ancient tradition and modern innovation converge in every bottle, creating kosher wines that speak eloquently of their unique terroir.
Yaakov guides us through a comprehensive tasting that follows a symbolic journey from the Negev desert through Hebron and ultimately to Jerusalem. Beginning with their accessible Talpiot range—designed specifically to welcome new wine drinkers—and culminating with their prestigious Yar Levanon Cabernet Sauvignon, each wine tells a distinct chapter in their story.
The heart of La Forêt Blanche is undoubtedly French winemaker Bruno, whose uncompromising dedication shapes everything from barrel selection to aging protocols. His refusal to rack barrels during aging—preserving the unique character each vessel imparts—exemplifies the winery's pursuit of excellence.
Whether you're a kosher wine enthusiast or simply appreciate the stories behind exceptional winemaking, this episode offers a fascinating glimpse into how La Forêt Blanche honors both its spiritual connections to the land and its commitment to world-class winemaking. Pour yourself a glass and join us for this intimate journey through one of Israel's most exciting emerging wineries.
