The celebration of Rosh Hashana is a sweet and bright time. Herzog Wine Cellars has selected three wines to liven up any Rosh Hashanah celebration in a sweet, sophisticated and fun way.
It’s time again to celebrate Rosh Hashanah in Oxnard, California. This day is one of the most important days in the Jewish calendar and marks the beginning of the High Holy Days, during which time Judaism celebrates their holiest days. As with many Jewish holidays, wine plays an important role in the celebration.
As America’s leading producer of kosher wines, Herzog Winery wanted to share its selection of the best celebratory wines in keeping with Rosh Hashanah. Rosh Hashanah traditionally features sweet treats and the exchange of desserts. In that spirit, Herzog presents three wines to start the new year off right for wine lovers of all types.
First up is Herzog Méthode Champagne sparkling wine. This traditionally made sparkling wine is a pure Chardonnay from Sonoma’s Russian River Valley. Clean and refreshing, with aromas of citrus and apple, sure to please the palate. Second, for the more sophisticated wine lover, is an Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from Sonoma. A big, bold Cabernet with flavors of fruit and spice absolutely bursting from the glass. A beautifully structured Cabernet Sauvignon that will satisfy those looking for the biggest, boldest wine. The final trio is our Late Harvest Zinfandel from Lodi. Made from old vines in California’s Premium Zinfandel region, this wine has the perfect combination of sweetness and structure. Those with a sweet tooth who want something to drink for dessert after a meal will find this wine is up to the task.
These wines are available in kosher grocery stores nationwide.
