Kosher Wine
10.12.2008
By: Natasha Hughes
What makes a wine kosher is not a blessing but the fact that, once juice begins to run from the grapes, neither grapes nor juice can be touched by a non-observant person – and nor can the winemaking equipment itself. Kosher wine must be made with kosher ingredients

The Israelites’ interest in winegrowing is a continual theme throughout the Bible and Talmud. Wine was seen as a symbol of happiness and out of all the books of the Bible, only the Book of Jonah contains no reference to it.

Religious Connection

To Jews there is no communal, religious or family life without wine. Each Sabbath starts with an act of blessing, the Kiddush or “Sanctification” is chanted over a cup of wine: “Blessed are you O Lord, Our God……for creating the fruit of the vine.”

Kosher Wine
23.08.2008
Not all wines produced in Israel are automatically kosher. In fact there are more wineries producing non kosher wine in Israel. However more than 90% of the Israeli wine produced is kosher. This is because, without exception, the largest wineries only produce kosher wines.
