There are many different types of kosher wine. Almost any type of wine you can imagine can be made kosher. This is because all the ingredients that go in to making wine are inherently kosher. So whether you favor a shiraz or moscato, a chianti or sauvignon, a yiron or a glass of bubbly spumante, there is a kosher wine for your particular taste. Any sweet wine or dry wine can be made kosher.
While most people associate kosher wine with sweet wines sush as shiraz, moscato, chianti, sauvignon, yiron and spumante, there are plenty of dry types of kosher wines as well.
Another type of kosher wine is mevushal, which we discussed earlier. Mevushal wine is the result of a boiling process that ensures a wine can be sold as kosher. This type of wine is heated to a temperature just below or a little above boiling. The result is a type of wine that is unfit to be used by idolaters, ensuring that the kosher wine in question will never be used for such. Unfortunately this type of wine-making is not without its drawbacks. The process of boiling the wine affects not only the taste but also the chemical and physical characteristics of the wine as well.
Regardless of what type of wine you choose to enjoy, whether a sweet wine like the ones mentioned above or a high-quality dry wine, there is most definitely a kosher wine for you. Many kosher wine shops often carry a huge selection of wine, making sure to stock all the different types of wine available. Mevushal is just one type of kosher wine, there are also wines listed as kosher for Passover and hechsher, just to name a few different types of kosher wine available both in dry wine and sweet wine varieties.
