Twenty minutes southeast of Ramot, up the windy road to the top of the southern Golan Heights, we visited Chateau Golan, (http://www.chateaugolan.co.il/) a boutique winery next to Odem that produces approximately 70,000 bottles of wine annually. Aside from its highly reputed wine, the winery has one of the most spectacular wine rooms I've seen. The room is set like a scene right out of a Harry Potter movie, and the extensive mahogany table centered between the concrete Roman-inspired pillars, is cut from one piece of wood and can seat 22 people for a tasting or more elaborate celebration. Our English speaking tour guide accompanied us throughout the winery, explaining the production process, both ancient and modern, and providing us with various selections of different wine. The non-kosher winery is available for free tours for groups of 10 or less. Advanced reservations are required.
