8 delicious Kosher wines to celebrate each night of Hanukkah

This year, Hanukkah begins early, marked by sunset on Wednesday, December 1, 2010. Hanukkah is known as the "Festival of Lights", commemorating Israel's freedom from the oppressive Syrian-Greek rule and the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem...It?s customary to eat deep-fried foods to celebrate the miracle of Hanukkah, in which a cruse of oil lasted for eight days instead of one. I can?t swear to this, but I'd guess a lot of American Jews, myself included, love the fact that while goyim only have one day of presents, we get ?8 crazy nights?, as Adam Sandler says in his first Hanukkah song.

Pairing wine with anything fried can be difficult. Fried foods need acidic wines to cut the fat. Here are 8 of my Hanukkah menu specific and ?fried food friendly? kosher wines, one for each night...

Some Love for Paso Robles

A lot of people who read this blog regularly and follow the wine we’re shipping in our wine clubs can tell you that I enjoy Rhone varietals and think Paso Robles is an under-appreciated wine growing region. Read some more thoughts of mine over at Cork’d. A wine from Paso Robles was named as the [...]

Blood is thicker than water (or wine)

I will get back to writing about my Mammoth vacation in a few days, but there is something more immediate that I feel compelled to write about.� My grandmother passed away this past Sunday July 4th.� While her passing was not unexpected, the news was no less saddening. I am fortunate to have known my [...]

It?s the most wonderful time of the year. Why not drink the most wonderful wine?

With the headache of Thanksgiving wine pairing officially behind us, it?s time to focus on the real holiday wine season. It is, after all, the most wonderful time of the year. You can practically smell Christmas, Hannukah, and the New Year in the air. That can only mean one thing for wine lovers? it?s Champagne season.

Save the Cava and Prosecco, well regarded sparklers from Spain and Italy, respectively, for other times of the year. The holiday season is Champagne season, a time to treat yourself and loved ones to the very best. And there?s no denying that Champagne is the very best when it comes to the art of sparkling wine making...

South Africa produces wines that bridge the gap between old world and new world

I recently enjoyed a tasting of South African Wines led by Zingo Munger of Cape Classics, an importer of a wide, well rounded range of South African Wines. After some discussion among the other tasters, I realized that South African wines just might be the perfect blend of old world delicacy and new world pizzaz that will hit the spot for wine lovers that are looking to strike a balance between the two extremes.

South Africa has the soil, climate and topography that create the perfect haven for many great varietals to blossom. Bright and lively Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc balance out hearty Shiraz, Merlot and Cabernet...
