Before Napa, before Bordeaux, before any of the appellations that define fine wine today, there was the Concord grape — a native American variety with a flavor so vivid, so instantly recognizable, that it needs no introduction. Kedem has been bottling it for over a century, and the Concord Grape remains their most enduring expression: a wine that has graced Jewish tables at Shabbat, Passover, and every celebration in between.

This is not a wine that hides behind subtlety. The Concord grape announces itself with confidence — a generous, full mouthfeel, the sweet and unmistakable aroma of fresh Concord, and a warmth that feels both familiar and genuinely satisfying. Sweet, yes, but beautifully balanced, with enough structure to carry it through a meal and enough character to stand on its own.

Kedem has been America’s most trusted Kosher wine producer for generations, and this wine is the reason. Simple, honest, and made with care for the table it has always served. Certified Kosher.

• Producer: Kedem Winery
• Varietal: Concord Grape
• Style: Sweet Red
• Origin: New York State, United States
• Certification: Kosher
• Format: 750ml

Food Pairings: Brisket, roasted chicken, grilled meats, roasted vegetables, honey cake, and the full breadth of the holiday table.

Long before Napa Valley became a household name, Kedem was already a fixture on American Jewish tables — pouring at Passover Seders, Shabbat dinners, and holiday celebrations with a consistency and warmth that few producers can claim. Founded over a century ago, Kedem remains one of America’s most trusted names in Kosher wine, and the Malaga is their most timeless expression.

Malaga-style wine has deep roots in Jewish tradition: sweet, fortified, and built for the table and the moment. Kedem’s rendition delivers exactly what generations of families have come to rely on — a full-bodied, deeply satisfying wine redolent of raisins, dates, dark dried fruits, almonds, and honey. Warming and indulgent without being cloying, it carries the character of a classic fortified wine made with purpose and heritage in mind.

Rich and luscious on the palate, with a long, sweet finish and the kind of approachable depth that works equally well as a dessert wine, an aperitif, or a companion to the holiday table. Certified Kosher.

• Certification: Kosher
• Format: 750ml

Winemaker Description 

The Judean Hills Blanc reflects the character and quality of the vineyards, located in the ancient region of Judean Hills. The color on this wine is a light gold, its not a deep color but its a pretty light gold.

The aromas are really nice, citrusy, melony, gooseberries, but also some yellow pear and green apple. There are lots going on fruit wise on the nose which makes it a really nice, medium to full bodied wine.

The acid comes on in the mid palate with more citrus in the mouth and a big acid on the finish. This wine is still going strong. It has a fairly long finish for a white wine, with some nice residual acid and melon flavor on the back.

The wine is super enjoyable with its fairly big white wine flavors. It drinks beautifully today and will keep developing in the bottle during the next 2-3 years.

Tasting Notes

An expression of crisp freshness, the Teperberg Inspire Art Series Dabouki is produced from old vines rooted for over 70 years. Expect a clean, vibrant palate with delicate citrus and stone fruit notes, lively acidity, and a pure, refreshing finish — a rare and captivating showcase of an indigenous Israeli grape.

About the Wine

The Dabouki grape — historically used for Arak or table grapes — is being rediscovered by top Israeli winemakers for its unique desert-friendly profile. This wine is a collaboration between Teperberg Winery, Israel's oldest family-owned winery, and internationally renowned street artist Dede, whose iconic graffiti adorns cities from Tel Aviv to major capitals worldwide.

Dede began painting his signature band-aids as a response to PTSD from military service. The heart-shaped band-aid on the capsule symbolizes healing and hope — making this bottle as meaningful as it is beautiful, and a standout gift or conversation piece for any holiday table.

Pairs beautifully with grilled fish, roasted vegetables, light pasta, and cheese boards. Versatile and food-friendly for any occasion.

Winemaker Description

In the eastern reaches of Sancerre lies a distinctive terroir defined by silex — the French term for flint — a dense, siliceous soil that gives this wine its singular mineral character. Light yellow with a golden core, the nose reveals fine, elegant flint-smoke notes that immediately announce the wine’s origins. Beneath the minerality, a layer of yellow fruit and delicate florals adds complexity and density.

On the palate, the flint-smoke character continues, framed by a full, juicy mouthfeel that remains precise and elegant. Powerful acidity drives the long, tense finish. This is Sauvignon Blanc at its most mineral and structured — the clay-siliceous soils, rich in siliceous conglomerates, providing exceptional finesse and a marked aromatic intensity that sets the Silex cuvée apart from classic Sancerre.

J de Villebois is a leading producer of Kosher Loire Valley wines, crafting appellation-driven Sauvignon Blancs from Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, and Touraine under strict kosher supervision.
