Step into the sun-drenched vineyards of Anava, where founder Nadav Jesselson transforms traditional winemaking into a community adventure. Fresh from their inaugural harvest, Nadav shares the triumphs and challenges of nurturing vines through Israel's demanding climate – and the unexpected honor of having their first vintage selected by prestigious Yatir Winery.

What distinguishes Anava from other vineyards is its innovative approach, allowing wine enthusiasts to own personal plots while participating in every aspect of the vineyard-to-bottle journey. Nadav passionately explains how this creates not just excellent wine, but also meaningful connections between people sharing the experience, between individuals and their inner selves through mindful tasting, and between humans and the specific land that nurtures these vines.

Beyond wine production, Anava partners with youth organizations to provide transformative experiences where vineyard tasks become metaphors for personal growth. As Nadav expands his "playground of varieties" with new plantings of Mediterranean-suited Carignan and Grenache, he invites listeners to consider what it means to create not just bottles but legacy – a project uniting community, education, and Israel's ancient winemaking tradition into something truly special.
