Description: Kosher wines have been winning prestigious international competitions and creating a buzz among wine connoisseurs, yet most kosher consumers still opt for “traditional” sweet stuff. Irving Langer used to be one of those people.
A man with a zest for living life to the fullest, Irving embarked on an exploration of the subtleties of fine wine – and now he’s ready to share his knowledge with you. With wit as dry as his favorite Merlot, Irving guides you on a fascinating, often whimsical journey, teaching you all you need to know: the differences between red, white, and sparkling wines; the ten steps of wine tasting; how to navigate a restaurant wine menu. He takes the mystery out of pairing wine with food, and provides solid lists of resources including wineries, critics, and helpful websites. Taking it to the next level, Irving probes the highly significant role of this spiritually charged drink in Jewish culture and history. Bursting with facts, folklore, and humor, The Kosher Grapevine will transform you from ho-hum Kiddush sipper to savvy wine aficionado. Reviews: The question for many is precisely how to identify the wines that give the most satisfaction. The best way is to taste wines. After you read this book, you will know how to do this, and you will discover the wonderful new adventure of wine tasting…. I’m sure you will find Irving Langer’s book informative and enjoyable.
