About the Winemaker
Cremisan Cellars, located in Bethlehem, Palestine, was founded in 1885 by Father Antonio Belloni at the Salesian Monastery.
Now led by winemaker Fadi Batarseh, the winery champions indigenous Palestinian grapes like Baladi, Hamdani, Jandali and Dabouki that have grown in this land for thousands of years. Al Jather is their natural line.
Farming & Cellar: 100% Baladi Aswad from the estate and local growers around Bethlehem and Hebron. Spontaneous fermentation with no added sulfites, then six months in neutral oak.
