A few months ago I read a short piece on kosher wines. I had been keeping my eye on them over the years because most people think of them as those overly sweet concord grape wines that tasted more like candy than wine. I'm not Jewish, but have quite a few friends that are, and I live in an area with a high population of those who try and stay kosher. Now kosher wine is hitting the big time. A few months ago I became friends with one of the distributors of kosher wines and spirits in my area and we've been planning on getting together soon so I can sample them. Well, yesterday I was at KosherFest, a kosher food and beverage trade show, and was amazed at how many high quality kosher wines are out there. In the next few weeks and months I will be reviewing wines of all types, but with the holidays coming I wanted to give a heads-up on a few good kosher ones to try.
