 Early Wine Industry - Sarona Winer

These stamps show two different values with two different designs one of Ginio Wine and the other Sarona Wine. It may be a small country (roughly the size of New Jersey), but Israel is a dynamic winemaking region distinguished by complex terroir and dramatic microclimates that range from cool high-altitude mountains to warm coastal plains and deserts. Over the last two decades, a new wave of quality-driven Israeli wines has emerged at the hands of winemakers who push boundaries, experiment with indigenous grape varieties, and employ the latest technologies to create wines that compete on the world stage—and win.
