Covenant operated for ten years without making Mevushal wine. However, in 2013, a new technique was developed that allows winemakers to heat the grapes as opposed to the wine.
Welome to Montefiore Monday! Today, Shlomo tries two wines from the Montefiore Winery in Jerusalem, Israel. Shlomo has some pretty strong opinions about Sirah...
Shlomo prefers to try the blend-the Kerem Moshe-first, followed by the Petite Sirah. Why? The Sirah grape is too intense before the blend. His mouth "gums up" from the tannins. Speechlessness aside, both wines are delicious. Have you enjoyed either recently?
