I've taken good tours of the Barkan Winery near Tzomet Hulda, the Dalton Winery, the Bravdo Winery, Tishbi in Zichron, and the Golan Winery in Karmiel.

You can check the hecshers on their websites.

Here is a useful website:

We took a tour of one of the wineries mentioned here, which has a reputable hechsher. But when it came time for the tasting at the end, the only wines offered were non-mevushal, and the woman leading the tour and doing the pouring did not appear to be frum at all.

Yes, I realize that looks can be deceiving, but when we asked to be allowed to open a bottle and pour for ourselves first which would make us more comfortable, our request was denied. We were told that the mashgiach approved this setup, but when we asked to speak to him, he was conveniently unavailable. We found this approach and attitude from a supposedly mehadrin establishment quite disturbing, so please be cautious if the wine being sampled is non-mevushal.

The grapes have already been harvested so there’s not much to see now. Just wine tasting was offered when we went last month, so be sure to ask what each winery is offering this time of year!

I second this, our family went recently and had a great experience. The restaurant -bayekev- was delicious, the views were absolutely fantastic, and then we had a wine tasting that was included in the tour price. The wine was excellent wine, it's a shame they dont export to our country
