The Ariel in Yehuda Winery tends a very special vineyard named in memory of Amichai Ariel’s daughter Hallel who was murdered in a 2016 terrorist attack. The vintner produces his 2020 dry red Hallel Cabernet Franc Merlot wine blend from this vineyard.
The vineyard is 950 meters above sea level in the Hebron Mountains, where the grapes benefit from the Juydean climate of hot days and cool nights.
The wine emphasizes aromas of fresh red fruit, vanilla, and chocolate. Aging the wine in oak barrels gives a hint of oak to the nose. It has a medium boy with a long aftertaste.
Each bottle of wine is numbered and comes from a limited production. Halleli wine makes a meaningful addition to your wine collection and is a gift not to be forgotten for family and friends.

The Ariel in Yehuda Winery tends a very special vineyard named in memory of Amichai Ariel’s daughter Hallel who was murdered in a 2016 terrorist attack.
The story of the Hallel wine is heartbreaking and inspiring in its message to all of us to choose life. In 2016 while Halleli was sleeping at the family home, a terrorist broke into the Kiryat Arba settlement and Ariel’s home. He stabbed the sleeping young girl multiple times before he was discovered and neutralized.
Halelli’s father, while crushed with grief, decided to cultivate a vineyard as a living memorial for his beloved daughter. Each year he makes a Hallel wine in her memory.
