Kosher Wine FAQs

What makes a wine kosher?

Kosher wine is produced according to Jewish dietary laws under appropriate rabbinical supervision. A kosher certification on the bottle indicates that the wine has met the required standards throughout production.

What types of kosher wine are available?

Kosher wine encompasses far more than a single grape or style. The Zachys selection includes Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, rosé, sparkling wine, and other varieties, offering options across a range of styles and price points.

What is the difference between kosher and mevushal wine?

All mevushal wines are kosher, but not all kosher wines are mevushal. Mevushal wines undergo a heating process during production that affects how the wine may subsequently be handled while maintaining its kosher status.

Is Israel known for fine wine?

Yes. Israel's modern wine industry produces increasingly diverse wines across red, white, rosé, sparkling, and sweet styles. Regions such as the Golan Heights are particularly associated with high-elevation vineyards and a wide range of international grape varieties.

Are kosher wines only for Jewish holidays?

No. Kosher wine can be enjoyed year-round. While kosher bottles play an important role during Passover, Rosh Hashanah, Shabbat, and other observances, they can also be selected for dinner, entertaining, gifting, or cellaring.
