Festive wines are an important part of the High Holiday celebrations of Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashana. Try some of these kosher, mevushal and eco-kashrut options.
For many Jews, the High Holidays — a stretch of days from Rosh Hashana, the Jewish new year, through Yom Kippur, the day of atonement — are an especially meaningful time in the Jewish calendar where festive meals and drink, particularly wine, are embraced.
For less-observant Jews as well as non-Jewish friends and family who take part in Jewish holidays, the complexities of Jewish wine traditions can be bewildering. At home with family, “I wouldn’t necessarily seek out a mevushal wine,” Novak said. “If I’m having company of different faiths and different practices, however, choosing a mevushal wine just makes it easier so we can all enjoy being together.”
For many progressive or secular Jews, drinking kosher wines is a special observance reserved for holidays like Rosh Hashana that help them connect with their faith or family. For others, kosher wines are eschewed altogether.“Whether wine, or more specifically, a kosher wine is meaningful or important for a reform Jew to seek out is a very individual decision,” said Allison Tick Brill, an adjunct rabbi at Sukkat Shalom, a progressive congregation in Wilmette.
