Kosher Wines for Passover

From The Vineyard Wine Market (www.thevineyardwinemarket.com)

2005 Baron Herzog Cabernet Sauvignon, California
This is a very approachable Cabernet Sauvignon with berry and plum notes finishing with fruity blackberry and spice flavors. It is light in the mouth with food-friendly acidity and tannin and hints of sweet French oak on the finish. Grapes for this wine are selected from vineyards in California's Central Coast areas of San Luis Obispo and Edna Valley and the northern coastal areas of Sonoma.
Kosher for Passover

2006 Baron Herzog Chardonnay, Central Coast
This Chardonnay is crisp and refreshing, perfect for summer. Smooth textured yet lively on the palate, our Central Coast Chardonnay serves up a fine array of apple, pear and vanilla-like flavors. This wine is a blend of Central Coast and Russian River Chardonnay. The central coast fruit displays tropical fruit, citrus, and chamomile. The barrel fermented Russian River fruit contributes oak notes in the nose and mouth and body.
Kosher for Passover

2006 Baron Herzog Sauvignon Blanc, California
This wine exemplifies Sauvignon Blanc, which should be crisp and light and show hints of citrus and herbs. A very refreshing quaff. The grapes for this wine were hand harvested from selected Central Coast vineyards in the Santa Barbara and Edna Valley appellations. The wine is very light in the mouth with distinctive lychee, pear and green components. Bright, crisp acidity leads to a lingering tropical finish. Kosher for Passsover

2008 Bartenura Moscato D'Asti, Italy
The Moscato grape is naturally rich in perfumes, and the production of this wine is geared towards preserving these aromas in the finished wine. Only the best grapes are used, and fermentation takes place at a low temperature in order to give a wine with fresh, peachy perfumes and a light, grapey fruit. Ideal on its own, as an apertif, or with fruit or light deserts. Serve chilled and drink young. Kosher For Passover
