Ever wonder what it takes to go from being a military tank commander to a pastry chef, and eventually, a chief winemaker? Let's embark on a voyage with Asaf Paz, the mastermind behind Vidkin Winery, as he shares his fascinating path charted across Israel, California, and Australia. His military experiences, culinary adventures, and deep-rooted passion for wine-making have all carved out his unique approach to crafting the perfect blend.

Our conversations with Asaf move from the vineyards to the warfront as we examine the impact of war on his winery. Despite the challenges, Asaf's resilience ensures his winery continues to thrive. This is not just a story about wine, but a tale of passion and perseverance. As we immerse ourselves in Asaf's world, we also get a glimpse into the array of techniques he employs in his winery, the nuances of being a chief winemaker in a big winery, and his push for increased production of Mediterranean varieties.

As we reach the final phase of our journey with Asaf, we explore the profound connection between winemaking and the land's promise. Asaf's story is a testament to his spiritual transition from a soldier to a winemaker. Discover how he characterizes his wines as masculine or feminine, how his military experience has shaped his approach to winemaking, and the significance of vineyards in wine production. This is a captivating tale that goes beyond just winemaking; it's about a man's journey across continents and careers, fueled by his undeniable passion for wine. So, grab your favorite kosher wine, sit back, and let's embark on this fascinating voyage with Asaf Paz.
