NV Manischewitz Blackberry (750ml)

Manischewitz has long stood as the leading kosher wine brand in America, with a broad lineup that spans everything from its well-known Concord grape wines to a range of fruit-forward styles like this blackberry bottling. Based in New York, the winery produces and bottles all of its wines under the strict rabbinical supervision of the Orthodox Union, carrying the mark that signals adherence to Orthodox Union guidelines across its entire portfolio.

This wine is made from freshly harvested dark blackberries, fermented at a controlled sixty-five degrees in stainless steel tanks rather than warmer conditions or oak. That cooler, steel-based fermentation preserves the berries' natural brightness and a touch of spiciness in the finished wine, keeping the focus on fresh fruit character rather than any wood-derived complexity. The finished wine comes in at a moderate eleven percent alcohol.

Sweet and unmistakably fruit-forward, this wine bursts with blackberry jam aromas and juicy dark berry flavor, with just enough gentle acidity to keep the sweetness in check. It finishes soft and nostalgic, the kind of easy sipper many grew up with at holiday tables. Serve it chilled on its own as an aperitif, or alongside roasted meats finished with a fruit-based sauce or a simple berry dessert.
