La Foret Blanche

In the region of Har Hévron (Mount Hebron), so rich in history, there are a significant number of archaeological sites where remains of ancient vineyards and wine-growing activities have been preserved, clearly testifying to the central role of this area in the wine industry of Eretz Israel. During archaeological excavations at Tel Hebron, pottery shards from wine amphorae were discovered, bearing the royal seal of the Kingdom of Judah (700 BCE), clearly inscribed "For the King of Hebron" . In the biblical town of Susya and Yatir Forest, 2,000-year-old vineyards are a tangible reminder of the thriving wine industry that once existed in this region. In 2003, the Livni family began producing wine from their single-varietal vineyard in Sde Kalev.
2000 years ago, the shrine erected in Jerusalem was known as the "House of the White Forest", symbolizing divine forgiveness for the transgressions of Israel. White, in this symbolism, represents purity, hope, mercy and grace, clarifying our impurities. The expression "Levanon" from "Yaar Levanon" refers to the quality wines offered in the Temple.
In the Song of Solomon, King Solomon refers to "the house of wine", traditionally interpreted as referring to the Temple: "He led me at the wine house and showed me his love."
