I'm looking for a very good bottle of Kosher Wine. It's a gift, so I'm looking in the $150 range. I was wondering if Baron Herzog makes a Kosher Cabernet or Merlot. Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I know Georges Duboeuf makes a kosher Beaujolais, villages i think. It is aorund 10 bucks.... I found it at www.popswine.com.
As far as some more ritzy wines, you may wish to check out some of the upper end wines produced in Israel. They have a growing wine industry and your chances of finding a kosher one will go up significantly. Plus, if, like I am thinking, this is a gift for a Jewish person, it could also lend some extra sentimental value.

Here's two links for many producers of Kosher wines.

Broadway, welcome ro the board. I`m sure Baron makes both varietals and Carmen used to make Kosher wines, but I`ve never heard of one that`s in the quality/Price range you quote. There`s a fine retailer near you in Northridge, aptly names Northridge wines and some very knowledgeable wine merchants like Hi Time Cellars in Costa Mesa Ph# 800 331-3005 and Bel-Aire in West LA Ph#310-447-2020. If these three dudes can`t answer your question, it`s a mystery-unsolvable. winoweenie

Have never met a Baron Herzog wine I didn't like and think any of them would make a nice gift. If you want to spend more, why not give a case?
