Château Golan

Château Golan

Château Golan is an Israeli winery established in 1999, in the southern Golan Heights, near the point where the Yarmuk River and wadi Ruqqad meet.

The winemaker is Uri Hertz[1]. The winery features a French-style Château, built from basalt, which is also used for art exhibitions.[2]

The winery grows thirteen grape types, including Bordelaise varietals Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot; Mediterranean varietals of French and Spanish origin: Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Carignan, Petite Syrah, Roussanne, Grenache Blanc and Viognier; and the Portuguese varietal Touriga Nacional.
