Jody Nestel — Princeton, NJ

In 1976, I made my first trip to Israel, and fell in love with the land, the people, and the wine. Over the years I have watched it change and grow, especially the wine industry. Today the Israeli wineries are struggling, but I believe that we can help.

I’m a professional wine educator, trained at the Philadelphia Wine School, and years of experience working at a NJ Winery. For each Shabbat, I will recommend an Israeli wine that is tasty, affordable, and easily obtained. Drink it, Enjoy it, Savor it – as we pray for Peace in the Vines, Peace in the Land of Israel.
