This December saw Wines of Israel join top-shelf travel brand Away and the “Humans of Tel Aviv” photography project — authored by noted photographer Erez Kaganovitz —at The Hoxton Hotel in Chicago for a travel-focused celebration of Israeli culture bringing together the food, wine, and music of the vibrant Israeli city. Three whites, a rosé, and eight reds were poured from a wide range of Israeli producers for an intimate crowd of art-loving Chicagoans and travelers, with almost everyone who tasted the wines insisting on taking a picture of the bottles in order to try to find them in the city—where Wines of Israel are becoming increasingly prevalent thanks to a deep selection of offerings from local retail giant Binny’s, not to mention a month-long Wine.com promotion that can be taken advantage of from anywhere in the US. 100% of ticket sales were donated to JCC Chicago.
