The story
Hermon is one of the commercial lines of the Golan Heights Winery. The parent company, active since the 1980s, has developed distinct labels to cover different market segments, leveraging the high-altitude vineyards of northern Israel to offer wines with good value for money.
Production philosophy
Offering expressive wines true to their terroir at accessible prices; the Mount Hermon line focuses on everyday, food-friendly wines that showcase the freshness and character of the grapes grown in the Galilee/Golan. Production takes place within the Golan Heights Winery, known for producing kosher wines.
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards cultivated in the Galilee region and on the Golan Heights: an area characterized by relatively high altitudes, volcanic/rocky soils and temperature variations that enhance the aromatic freshness of the grapes.
