Kosher
wine is grape wine produced according to Jewish religious law, and more
specifically, Jewish dietary law. Only Sabbath-observant Jews can oversee and
supervise the entire winemaking process. Vineyards must adhere to specific
rules and all ingredients used in winemaking, including yeasts and fining
materials, must be kosher. Wine that is labelled “kosher for Passover” must be
kept away from contact with any kind of grain, dough or bread. The finished
wine must carry the “seal of approval” of a kosher supervising agency or
organization, an authoritative rabbi, or Jewish religious court of law. Today’s
Kosher wine is a far cry from yesteryear and is available from wine regions all
over the world.
