Mevushal Wine

Mevushal wine is a kosher variety that remains kosher even if it's handled and served by non-Jews or Jews that don't observe the Sabbath. To be considered as Mevushal, a wine must be heated to 185 Degrees Farenheit. This process has been troublesome in the past, because generally, exposing wine to high temperatures for an extended period of time can threaten or even ruin a wine's character and flavor. In recent years the industry has developed some interesting techniques that cut back on this problem. Tomorrow I'll discuss the most used method, flash pasteurization.
