Wine Facts
- Baladi, Dabouki, Jandali and Hamdani grapes are the main focus for Cremisan, forgoing more traditional varieties such as Chardonnay and Cabernet.
- Translated from Arabic, Baladi means “native”, “indigenous” and/or “of the country”
- All Cremisan wines are organically produced, with vines being tended without the use of pesticides and chemicals. Vines are pruned, sorted and picked by hand.
- The production and sale of Cremisan wines support the work of the Salesian Monks in the Holy Land.
About the Cremisan Winery

World renowned enologist Riccardo Cotarella – most noted for his Falesco winery in Italy – is now part of the Cremisan Winery, lending his professionalism and talent.
