The King of Levantine Wine - Jascala from Galilee

This post will upset a lot of Levantines (I’m sorry in advance).

Last night my cousin Tyler came from the US after a long time of being away, and inspired by what Jesus said;  “Everyone serves the good wine first, and then the inferior wine after the guests have become drunk", I decided to serve the best wine first. And that’s when we started serving Jascala, from Jish in Galilee.

I have always heard about Galilean wine and how good it is. But this one exceeded my expectations, by a lot. I always had a thing for Chateau Musar, but this one trumped it (I’m sorry Lebanese friends).

I have to be honest and say that it’s a bit pricey but we have to stand with our people living under the Israeli occupation, support their products and their resilience.

Much love to Jascala and the family behind it.
