Join us as we sit down with Natanel Neli Sagiv, an assistant winemaker at Covenant Winery, who shares his unexpected journey from a high-tech career to the art of winemaking in Berkeley. Learn how a chance meeting with Jeff Morgan changed his career path forever. Together, we savor Covenant's Chardonnay 23, Levan, and discuss its fresh, crisp, and well-balanced notes, providing a sensory experience you won't want to miss.

In this episode, Neli opens up about the intricate world of winemaking, from refining his palate to mastering the sensory evaluation of wine. He shares the physical and emotional demands of the winemaking process, from harvesting grapes to managing fermentation, and the deep satisfaction of hands-on creation. We also highlight the essential role of mentorship in his journey, showcasing the blend of art and labor that defines the craft. Neli's personal stories and insights offer a rare glimpse into the meticulous care and tradition behind kosher winemaking, emphasizing its connection to Jewish rituals and laws.

Contrasting lifestyles of Shoham, Israel, and Berkeley, California, Nili shares the unique aspects of Jewish life in Berkeley and reflects on the importance of community and support during challenging times. Thank you for being a part of The Kosher Terroir.
