Matar Winery
wine from Israel
Signature Wines • Golan Heights • Kosher • Free Shipping from $1,499
"Born from the vision of Tal Pelter, Matar is the perfect union between the rigor of Kosher law and the creative freedom of one of Israel's brightest winemakers."
The Strength of the North
Located in Kibbutz Ein Zivan, Matar Winery takes advantage of the unique conditions of the Golan Heights. At an altitude of 1,000 meters above sea level, the vineyards grow on volcanic basalt soils that provide exceptional minerality and depth.
The thermal contrast of the Golan allows for slow maturation, preserving the acidity that critics like James Suckling have highlighted in the winery's scores. Under the direction of Tal Pelter, Matar has redefined the standard of Kosher certified wines in the region.
The cool breezes descending from Mount Hermon regulate the temperature of the vines during the summer, allowing for prolonged periods for the flavonoids and tannins to reach aromatic fullness without accumulating excess sugar. This natural balance translates into vibrant, elegant wines with extraordinary aging potential.
At La Cava Shop, we bring the best editions of Matar Winery directly to Mexico with guaranteed origin and thermal packaging designed to protect their maximum quality. Enjoy free shipping on purchases over $1,499 pesos or a flat rate of $99 pesos on smaller orders.

Matar CB
The winery's "Flagship". A powerful and elegant red blend composed mainly of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc, whose quality has been recognized in publications like Wine Spectator for its balance and aging potential.
Offers deep notes of black fruits, cassis, warm spices, and fine integrated wood; ideal for solemn dinners or pairings with grilled red meats.
New World Style
Matar applies contemporary viticulture techniques, similar to those studied at UC Davis, to maximize the fruit expression of Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Fermentation at controlled temperatures and manual selection of bunches are prioritized, resulting in fleshy, expressive, and intensely perfumed reds.
Kosher Purity
Supervised by the Rabbinate of Israel and international rabbinic organizations (Kosher Badatz), ensuring that every stage complies with the laws of purity for Passover and all year (Kosher L'Pesach).
An impeccable winemaking standard that captivates both observant and secular connoisseurs of fine wine.
Queries for the Connoisseur
What is the difference between Pelter and Matar?
Both wineries are managed by Tal Pelter and share the Ein Zivan facilities. The fundamental difference is that the Matar line was specifically created to offer signature wines with the highest-grade Kosher certification, maintaining the same avant-garde winemaking principles that made the sister winery Pelter famous.
Volcanic Terroir: Basalt and Minerality
The soil of Ein Zivan is rich in basalt and dark volcanic rocks with excellent drainage. This geological composition forces the roots to seek nutrients deep in the subsoil, which gives Matar's reds their nerve, graphite-earthy notes, tension on the palate, and outstanding longevity.

Aging in French and American Oak
Matar Winery combines fine-grained French oak barrels with touches of American oak, allowing Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon to develop a complex tannic architecture without losing the mineral freshness of the volcanic soil.
During the prolonged aging of 12 to 20 months depending on the label, the wine matures in underground cellars at regulated temperature and humidity, ensuring constant micro-oxygenation that softens the tannins and adds subtle nuances of vanilla, bitter cocoa, and noble toasts.
