The wine region of Bethlehem
Biblical vineyard of the West Bank around Bethlehem, high-altitude limestone soils (~800 m). Revived Palestinian heritage grapes by Cremisan (1885): Dabouki is the signature white with citrus, white flowers, Mediterranean herbs and a mineral-saline touch. Hamdani and Jandali add aromatic whites. Baladi is the signature red with red fruit, spice and an herbaceous note.
The word of the wine: Phylloxera
Aphid that came from America and ravaged European vineyards at the end of the 19th century. It lives on the roots of the vine, from which it pumps the sap. The only vines capable of resisting it had to be imported from the United States, and then grafted onto their root system the wood of traditional French grape varieties. Today, grafted vines are always planted.
