Frequency: 1 episode/6d. Total Eps: 8

One of the oldest wine regions in the world is in the middle of a revival, and every bottle coming out of it points to the promises of God being fulfilled today.

Hosted by Daniel and Alana Elliott, husband-and-wife wine entrepreneurs and co-founders of israeligoodwine.com, a wine club built around Israel, Vintage Land explores what wine, rest, and the land of Israel have to do with faith. Surrounded by winemakers and stories most people never hear, Daniel and Alana are bringing you behind the scenes, sharing these stories alongside Scripture, faith, and a dedication to rest that can't be separated from any of it.

Some weeks you'll hear from winemakers and vineyard owners straight from Israel. Some weeks it's a dive into the history, the terroir, and the traditions woven through it all. And some weeks, it's just Daniel and Alana: the honest, unpolished version of how they got here, and the questions that go with it.

Real conversations, real wine, real faith. No polish required.

Come join us at the table and ask all your questions. We're so excited you're here.

EP 7 | Israeli Wine History and Regions with Adam Montefiore

Episode 7

Wednesday, October 14, 2026 • Duration 56:46

Long before Israel had a modern wine industry, one man was already dreaming of its vineyards.

In this episode, Daniel sits down with Adam Montefiore, often called Israel’s senior wine writer and the ambassador of Israeli wine. Adam is a fifth generation member of the Montefiore family, a 27 year veteran of the Golan Heights Winery and Carmel, the Wine Talk columnist for the Jerusalem Post, and the author of the Israel section of the World Atlas of Wine.

Over a table of Israeli rosés, Adam traces the thread that runs from ancient winepresses hidden in Israel’s forests, to his ancestor Moses Montefiore’s 1839 vision of Jews returning to the land, to the hundreds of wineries producing world class wine today. He walks through Israel’s wine regions, shares how the industry grew from about a dozen wineries into a global contender, and makes the case for why putting an Israeli wine on your table matters right now.

In this episode:

Why Adam calls rosé the quintessential Israeli wine
Moses Montefiore: a wine lover, a forerunner of Zionism, and the man who first suggested Jews return to the land through agriculture
The vineyard of Moses and Judith, and the story behind the Montefiore Windmill in Jerusalem
How the Golan Heights Winery sparked a quality revolution in the 1980s
The boutique winery boom of the 1990s and where Israeli wine is headed next
Carignan, Petite Sirah, Argaman, and Dabouki: the grapes that make Israel unique
A tour of Israel’s wine regions: the Golan Heights, Upper Galilee, Judean Hills, Judean Foothills, Central Mountains, Coastal Plain, and the Negev
How the war has affected wineries in the Golan and Galilee, and how you can support them
The secret visit from one of the world’s most famous wineries
Adam’s take on the wedding at Cana and why the best wine came last

Scripture referenced:

Genesis 9:20 (Noah plants the first vineyard)
John 2:1-11 (Jesus turns water into wine at Cana in Galilee)

EP 6 | Wartime Wine: A Golan Heights Winery One Year After October 7

Episode 6

Wednesday, October 7, 2026 • Duration 29:39

Three years after October 7, we return to the Golan Heights to visit Terra Nova Winery and winemaker Ilan Matalon.

Filmed in October 2024, one year after the attacks, this episode of Vintage Land begins with a time of remembrance for the lives lost on October 7, 2023, and for the families, hostages, soldiers, and communities still living with the cost.

Then Daniel sits down with Ilan on Moshav Kanaf, overlooking the Sea of Galilee, during Sukkot. With his visitor center empty and his staff gone, Ilan was running the winery alone and hand-delivering wine and olive oil across Israel. The day before filming, rockets filled the sky with smoke. Still, the grapes would not wait.

In this conversation:

- How the war affected Israeli wineries and farmers

- Golan Heights altitude, basalt soil, and minerality in wine

- Terra Nova's award-winning Israeli olive oil

- The Bereshit (Genesis) and Noam blends

- Life on a moshav, where a whole community fights fires together

- The 2023 vintage Ilan calls "wartime wine"

EP 5 | Shabbat at Our Table: Why Rest Is a Gift, Not a Rule

Episode 5

Wednesday, September 30, 2026 • Duration 39:51

Before God called anything else holy, He called the Sabbath holy. In this episode, Daniel and Alana sit down at their own kitchen table to talk about Shabbat: what it is, where it comes from, and why it has become the most protected day of their week since 2016.

They walk through the biblical foundations of the Sabbath, from creation to the Ten Commandments to the words of Jesus, and unpack the two Hebrew words that anchor it: zachor (remember) and shamor (guard). Then they open up their Friday night rhythm: the candles, the wine, the bread, the blessings, and why they keep it without trying to be legalistic about it.

Plus: the night they cooked for 20 and 40 people showed up, and the four-year-old who couldn't wait for Shabbat because it meant Legos with Dad.

In this episode

What Shabbat is and why you should care
Genesis 2 and the first thing God called holy
Why the biblical day starts at sundown, and what it means to begin with rest
The Sabbath as a covenant sign, and the land's Sabbath rest
Zachor: remember the Sabbath (Exodus 20)
Shamor: guard the Sabbath, and why it's really about freedom (Deuteronomy 5)
Manna, double portions, and the invitation to trust
Delighting in the Sabbath, and "the Sabbath was made for man"
How we keep Shabbat as Gentiles, without legalism
Candles, Kiddush, bread, and why wine represents abundance
Blessing each other, Proverbs 31, and the woman of valor
The Friday night blessing over children
Flexibility, and closing Shabbat with Havdalah
Isaiah 56: the Sabbath is for the foreigner too
The night 40 people showed up for dinner
Why we invite others into Sabbath, and a nephew's Lego story
Your challenge: take one step toward rest

EP 4 | Amichai Lourie and Shiloh Winery, Everything is a Miracle

Episode 4

Wednesday, September 23, 2026 • Duration 24:32

Everything Is a Miracle: More From Shiloh Winery with Amichai Lourie

In part two of our conversation at Shiloh Winery, Amichai Lourie takes us somewhere we didn't expect. Daniel asks him for one miracle, just one story from the vineyard or the winemaking room that he can point to and say, that was God. Amichai can't narrow it down. From vines planted on bedrock everyone said would never grow, to a harvest that keeps producing more wine than the math says it should, he makes the case that once you're paying attention, the ordinary stops looking ordinary.

This episode continues our conversation from Part 1 with Amichai, and If you haven't listened to part one, start there.

In this episode:

Why Amichai couldn't give a single answer to "name one miracle"
Planting vineyards on land everyone said was impossible
The sixth-year harvest that consistently defies expectations
A close look at the grammar of a Jewish morning prayer, and what it reveals about gratitude
Faith and resilience during wartime in Israel

EP 3 | Amichai Lourie and Shiloh Winery Part 1

Episode 3

Wednesday, September 16, 2026 • Duration 35:18

What does it take to prove a 2,700-year-old prophecy is coming true, one glass at a time?

In this episode of Vintage Land, Daniel sits down with Amichai Luria, a dear friend and one of the finest winemakers in Israel, at Shiloh Winery's brand-new visitor center. Daniel and Amichai first crossed paths back in 2018, when Shiloh was still operating out of a converted 1970s warehouse. Today it produces half a million bottles a year and has earned recognition from James Suckling, Decanter, and Wine Spectator. But how did a stretch of land that travelers once called desert and swamp become one of the most celebrated wine regions in the world?

Amichai takes Daniel, and listeners, into the archaeological evidence buried in the hills around the winery: ancient Shiloh, where the Tabernacle stood for 369 years before Jerusalem became Israel's capital. Then the conversation turns to something bigger. Could the mountains of Israel blooming again be the fulfillment of a promise written by the prophet Ezekiel nearly three millennia ago? And what does it mean to run a modern winery according to laws written for ancient farmers, including a sabbatical year for the land itself and a tithe that one accountant swore would bankrupt the business?

It didn't. Find out why.

EP 2 | How God's Promises Are Written Into Israel's Wine Revival

Episode 2

Wednesday, September 16, 2026 • Duration 30:56

Every bottle has a story, and this episode traces one of the biggest: how a 2,000-year-old exile ended up rebuilding one of the world's most exciting wine regions.

Daniel and Alana dig into the connection between biblical prophecy and the modern rebirth of Israeli wine — starting with Jesus's first miracle at the wedding in Cana, and the surprising historical fact that wine was one of ancient Israel's major exports.
