Down the mountain is a new vineyard but they are not making their own wines yet and they are importing from Israel...

We didn't try as more interested in the locally produced stuff and not sure about the politics of the owner yet which will definitely affect the taste of the wine...

A brief stop off at the post orifice to collect post- everyone has a box here not a letterbox at home...
