Tishbi

In 1882, Michael and Malka Chamiletzki took their first steps in Zichron Yaakov after emigrating from Lithuania. Michael was chosen by Baron Rothschild to plant vineyards in the region, and the harmonious and deep relationship between the family, the land, and the vineyard began from that day on. The family settled in nearby Shefaya, now surrounded by vineyards, and began to cultivate the land and grow vines. Initially, the winery was called the Baron Wine Cellars after Baron Rothschild, but they later changed the name to the family name – the Tishbi Winery. Today all the members of the family work in the winery. Throughout the years, the winery has grown and developed, and now produces around one million bottles a year.
