Galai Winery

“Ahat” Winery is a small, high-quality boutique winery run by a single woman, born out of a passion for creation and a desire for free expression in the winemaking process. The vineyard is located in the Upper Galilee, while the winery itself is based in Mateh Yehuda. It produces white and rosé wines that are regularly featured in some of the country’s leading restaurants, wine bars, and specialty shops. Nitzan Sabrasky, who holds a bachelor’s degree in Viticulture and Enology from the University of Milan and a master’s degree in Viticulture and Enology from the Polytechnic University of Madrid, decided to establish her own small winery after gaining experience in wineries across Italy, South Africa, and Israel. Her winemaking philosophy is rooted in respect for the raw material, with a preference for minimal intervention and as little use of additives as possible. The pursuit of balance and freshness guides her work and plays a key role in the decision-making process.

The winery was established in 2002 at my home out of my love for wine and was moved to the vineyard grounds at the entrance to Eilat in 2014. Back in 2008, the winery won its first medal out of 24 that the winery has won since its establishment. The combination of desert, sea and mineral soil produces a unique wine. The winery produces white and red wines from different varieties and at the visitor center we prepare a selection of delicacies for guests to enhance the experience of visiting the complex.
