Ever wonder how a seasoned winemaker navigates the plethora of choices for Pesach wines? 17 Global Wine Celebrities join us to share their vast knowledge and offer a blend of wisdom on pairing the perfect wines with your Seder meal. From the first cup of robust red to the sweet sips that bid us goodnight, we traverse the globe, uncorking personal customs and rich traditions that promise to make your Seder as memorable as the exodus itself.
As we raise our glasses, you'll discover how to balance the joyous celebration with a strategic pacing of wine consumption that will keep the spirit high and the senses keen. Whether you're partial to aged Bordeaux from your cellar or contemplating a light rosé to kick things off, this episode is your vintage guide to a wine selection that resonates with both the palate and the soul. With tales of Seders from Calcutta to Ashkenaz, we toast to the diversity of Jewish culture and the bonds of tradition that weave through our festive gatherings.
Beyond the vineyard, we delve into the very essence of Pesach – freedom and the passing of heritage. We discuss the importance of supporting our Israeli vintners in trying times and the joy of imparting timeless values to the next generation over glasses filled with liquid history. Join us for this heartwarming journey into the world of Pesach wines, where each cup holds more than just a drink – it's a reflection of our heritage, a celebration of freedom, and an invitation to create new memories around your Seder table.
