The Winery

Alexander winery was founded by Mr. Yoram Shalom (Owner and wine maker) in Tel-Aviv (1996), and was relocated (1999) to Beit Yitzhak, a Moshav in Hefer Valley. The winery began as a small family venture but slowly grew into a very successful, highly acclaimed boutique winery. Since the 2006 vintage the winery products are Kosher and in 2007 the wines are also Kosher under the supervision of the “Beit Joseph” organization.
At the beginning the winery produced ~ 12,000 bottles (1999), 2002 ~35,000 and since the 2005 vintage  ~ 50,000 bottles. The 2009 vintage is expected to reach ~ 60,000 bottles.

The Winemaker

Yoram Shalom began acquiring his love for wine and winemaking as a child watching his father, Alexander Shalom, making wine at home. His interest and curiosity to learn and master winemaking developed through reading, experimenting, visiting and consulting vintners and winemakers in Israel and abroad. Finally, his urge and burning desire to make wine overcame him and he decided to switch to full time winemaking. He resigned his position as a photographer with the Israeli Television and became a full time winemaker and a winery owner.
 
From a hesitant start, his dedication and drive for perfection brought his high quality wines to the public's notice, became highly acclaimed, sought after and known as top quality wines in Israel as well as abroad.
