I had a Kosher wine once, only once …

Great Show!!!

QOTD: I’ve actually had the Hagafen Cabernet from multiple vintages. I also have a few bottles of the Hagafen Syrah and Cabernet in my cellar (2002 and 2003 vintages). Great wines and the people who work out at the winery in Napa are incredible people. Very informative and great to talk to.

QOTD: no. I have a friend who will only drink Manischewitz (sp?) and it makes me gag, so I wrongly avoided them all. Now, though, I can look for these and work on her! : )

It would be neat to see you taste a variety of wines from throughout the middle east. We have a particular interest in Jordan…

Guys, re: the WS p*ssing match- it’s not worth the waste of our energy. Let’s let it go, OK?

Yes, I have had many a case of a great white Kosher wine but I cn’t remember what the namse is now. I used to drink tons of it 20 years ago.

I just saw it the other day too and I was telling Dennis about it while we were passing the Kosher section on our way to the Syrahs…..

What is the name of that wine???

Uhhhhh……….I can’t remember.

Anyway, you have a great Kosher section there at the store. Next time I come in I am going to pick up a few bottles.

QOTD: No, but I’m having my first rose from the Tavel appellation in France, and I am ejoying it.

One of my sons current girlfriends is Jewish. Maby now is the time?

hey

QOTD: No, I haven’t had a premium Kosher wine. Might look for one now, but first I’ll have to figure out what all that bacon on the nose was doing in the Galil Mountain Yiron Kosher wine.

QOTD: No, I haven’t had a premium Kosher wine. Might look for one now, but first I’ll have to figure out what all that bacon on the nose was doing in the Galil Mountain Yiron Kosher wine.

QOTD: Nope, no kosher wines yet.

Gary- Great show even when loopy!

QOTD- None, but ordered some today.

Thanks for the excellent TNs today. Top effort!

QOTD: I have had a few good Kosher wines, but I always go into drinking them with a preconceived notion and haven’t necessarily loved them. I will continue to explore!

Hungary and Israel, here I come!

QOTD: I don’t think I have. I am a horrible horrible person.

I haven’t read all the comments to see if someone answered, but it was from March 31 to June 17th in 1985. The Iron Sheik & Nikolai Volkoff are sitting in my parents basement somewhere I am sure.

Never, I have looked several times but Kosher wines just don’t make it Oregon.
Anyone know of a distributor in Oregon??

Damn, now that I read the comments I was not even close to being first.

QOTD: Not that I know of.

had the 02 Hagafen Syrah at a wine tasting. It was meh

Great show GV! I remember one Passover searching the local wine shop for something kosher and having a tough time finding anything at all. Forgot what we ended up with (it was not memorable!), but we did stop at Hagafen in Napa and enjoyed their wine. Maybe you’d consider free shipping on the Segal’s in time for Passover????

relatively 1 month into your site. I was very pleased to see you hard knock a wine. I am interested in those as well to help structure a negative palate.

Never had a kosher wine.

I’ve never had a kosher wine in my life

I can’t believe it. I found the 2003 Galil Mountain Yiron tonight after I saw the show. I am drinking it now and it is good! Had a nice steak tonight with jerk spice and the wine is perfectly paired.

Hey Gary,

Nice focus.

I don’t have access to many Israeli wines in my area. I tried a few in the $10+ range (bought all available offerings from two labels on the shelves of a local store) and felt them to be on par with Two Buck Chuck.

When are we going to see you on OpenWine Consortium?

QOTD: No, and mainly due to your reviews. It seems that Kosher wines are about 5 years away from being wines to be sought out. The Castel may be an exception, but at $60 not a wine to seek out. And damn, while we’re on the subject, you really force me to spend a lot of time. I had to go back and watch EVERY episode on Kosher wines to make sure I wasn’t imagining things.
