Text description provided by the architects. The young but well-acclaimed winery commissioned a building which would itself be an iconic marketing tool for the new brand. The building functions both as a factory for the production of wine and as a visitor center that exposes the process of wine production. Jewish dietary laws forbid any non-religious person to touch the wine until it is hermetically bottled. This restriction posed a unique challenge in planning the factory tour, requiring an absolute separation between visitors and the wine in its various stages. The plan of the building is therefore based on its paths of circulation: one route for the wine, another for the visitors.
