15 From Looking at a Map: 33 o Bit Surprising for Fine Wine So What is Going On?! N33 o

16 First, Our Golan Soils. Much Wine is Grown in Volcanic Soils Austria Hungary Germany (Mosel) France (Alsace, Languedoc) Italy (Tuscany, Sicily, Compania) Australia (Yarra Valley, Victoria) Washington Oregon California ( Sonoma Volcanics, Sonoma Mountain, Napa, Howell Mountain)

17 Next, Our Climate: Mediterranean Distribution of Mediterranean Climates See high correlation of Mediterranean Climate to wine production.

18 Israel at a Glance 33 o 67 Km 40 Mi 20 Km 12 Mi Vineyards in Israel are moving from the Coastal Plain to Higher Elevations 32 o 400 Km 240 Mi Israel is about half the size of Switzerland or Slightly larger than Województwo Dolnośląskie or 8% the size of New Zealand 100 Km 60 Mi

19 Higher Altitude Simulates Increasing Latitude Rough Rule of Thumb: Every increase of 1 m in elevation simulates an increase of 1 km in latitude. Or: Every increase of 5 feet in elevation simulates in increase of 1 mile in latitude.

20 The Range of Our Vineyard Elevations in the Golan Heights Simulates a Change in Latitude of 500 miles Significant? About the length of France. Toulouse to Lille: ~500 mi

21 Using Rule of Thumb, Range of Similar Latitudes in Europe N45 o Where the Vast Majority of European Wine is Produced N37 o N33 o

22 Using Elevation Rule of Thumb: Location of Our Vineyards on USA West Coast Odem El Rom Ein Zivan Ortal Tel Phares 800 km Allone Habashan, Yonaton Napa 38 o Geshur, Ramat Magshimim 400 km

23 Studying Our Climate With Our 13 Weather Stations Expert: Meteo-tech Meteorologic Services Temperature Relative Humidity Rain Wind Speed Wind Gust Speed Wind Direction Radiation Soil Temperature Leaf Wetness (measured every second)

30 Golan Heights Vineyards and Their Soils Bottom Line All (vineyard) soils have good water holding capacity but are well-drained, ensuring aerated soils and possible deep rooting.
