In this conversation, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath and Dr. Kenny Friedman discuss the concept of Moshiach wines, the significance of wine in Jewish traditions and the importance of choosing the right wine for special occasions. Rabbi Bernath shares his choice for the wine he would serve if Moshiach came right now, the Matar CB, 2016. They briefly discuss the kosher food scene in Montreal. Kenny discusses a wine he had this weekend, the Chateau Marquisat de Binet, Cuvée Abel, Montagne Saint-Émilion, 2015, and the significance of distinguishing between aromas, in this case, the presence of Brettanomyces (Brett) vs. tertiary aromas. They take a comment from a listener, exploring the significance of wine in Jewish culture, its place in Jewish history, and the history and significance of saying 'L'chaim' when toasting with wine. The conversation highlights the importance of expanding one's palate and trying different types of wines.
