Kosher Wine List

Wine has long been a mainstay in Jewish religious customs. The process of making wine kosher entails strict rabbinical supervision in every step of the wine-making process. This religious distinction is what separates kosher wine from non-kosher wine. The 1980s brought forth a significant bump in modern-day production thanks to serious Israeli winemakers and their desire to create sophisticated wines. Today, numerous kosher wines are produced all over the world, from Italy and France to Israel and California. Their flavors and complexities, body and texture challenge the best of the world's top wines, regularly winning awards.

World-renowned for its wine, Italy is an obvious choice when searching for the perfect beverage accompaniment for any dinner or celebration. The dry, red Borgo Reale Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 2007, with its hints of rich ripe fruit and subtle spicy flavor, settles softly on the palate, falling purely. It's a sweet, fresh, appropriately blended medium-bodied wine, perfect for serving with appetizers, cheeses and roast meats.


Segal's Cabernet Sauvignon Special Reserve 2005
