Dalton’s Single Vineyard wines are more than just fine wines – they are a rare and exclusive expression of the land, meticulously crafted to highlight the distinctive characteristics of each vineyard. Unlike blended wines, which aim for consistency across vintages, single vineyard wines embrace the natural variations of a specific site, allowing its soil, climate, and microclimate to shine through in every bottle.
These wines offer an intimate connection to the land, telling the story of the vineyard from which they originate. For true wine enthusiasts and collectors, single vineyard wines represent the pinnacle of terroir-driven winemaking – limited in production, highly sought after, and undeniably special.
Single vineyard wines are a true reflection of a specific place. Unlike blended wines that combine grapes from multiple vineyards for consistency, single vineyard wines are crafted from grapes grown in one distinct location. This approach highlights the unique characteristics of the soil, climate, and microclimate of that particular vineyard, allowing for a pure and authentic expression of terroir.
Each vintage of a single vineyard wine tells a different story, shaped by natural influences such as weather conditions, soil composition, and elevation. This makes them highly prized by collectors and wine lovers who seek distinct, limited-production wines that encapsulate a sense of place.
Nestled in the heart of the Galilee, Dalton Winery has earned a reputation for crafting some of Israel’s finest wines. Established in 1995 by father and son Mat and Alex Haruni, the winery was born from a vision to transform the Upper Galilee into a premium wine-producing region. With a strong focus on terroir-driven wines, Dalton has developed and cultivated 80 hectares of vineyards, ensuring meticulous control over quality from vine to bottle.
Dalton’s Single Vineyard Series is a testament to this dedication. Each wine in this collection is produced from a specific vineyard, carefully selected for its unique soil composition, altitude, and climatic conditions. This series embodies Dalton’s philosophy of creating wines that are both expressive and true to their origins:
