Tzora Winery was founded in 1993 by Ronnie James, a man of vision devoted to studying the characteristics of the soil, cultivation methods and the influence of the terroir on the wine's characteristics and quality. James passed away in 2008, but the winery continues his vision by growing grapes on small plots in Shoresh Vineyards of the Judean Hills, and producing terroir oriented wines. Eran Pick, a graduate of UC Davis in California and the only Israeli to hold the prestigious Master of Wine degree, serves as winemaker and manager. The wines excel in complexity and elegance.
