ROSE SEASON IN FULL SWING WITH A MORE-EXCITING-THAN-EVER LINEUP

The popularity of Rosé wines over the past decade has often been deemed a trend. The constant growth, however, both in offerings and quality, has proved that rosé wines are here to stay. Royal Wine Corp. is now the exclusive US importer for Château Roubine, one of only 18 Cru Classé properties in Provence. The kosher wines produced by Château Roubine, including the Cuvée B from its sister property Château Sainte-Béatrice, are only 3 out of more than 30 rosé wines from all over the world distributed by Royal Wine. Other items comprise wines from California such as the Herzog Lineage Rosé, Israeli Bordeaux-style Rosé du Domaine du Castel, Les Lauriers de Rothschild Rosé from Compagnie Vinicole Edmond de Rothschild, as well as Goose Bay Pinot Noir Rosé, made by the renown Spencer Hill winery in New Zealand.

BORDEAUX’S 2019 EN PRIMEUR CAMPAIGN LOOKING PROMISING

After several years of price increases, this year’s en primeur campaign for the 2019 Bordeaux wines shows a significant price drop, despite yet another exceptional vintage for the region. “While the decrease in prices seems to be largely due to the turmoil affecting the world’s economy following the COVID-19 outbreak, the Bordeaux wine prices had previously likely reached an unbreakable ceiling,” said Gabriel Geller, Royal Wine’s Director of Public Relations and Manager of Wine Education. “We have a number of exciting kosher cuvées gracefully aging in the barrels, including outstanding wines from top properties in Margaux, Pauillac, and Saint Julien. By the time these wines will be released, we certainly hope that the economy will have largely recovered,” added Geller.

BOONDOCKS ADDS RYE WHISKEY TO ITS SUCCESSFUL PORTFOLIO

Boondocks, a line of American whiskeys and bourbons produced by Royal Wine Corp. in partnership with Whisky Advocate Lifetime Achievement Award winner Master Distiller Dave Scheurich, has introduced a Rye whiskey to its growing portfolio. Scheurich, who has helped to create some of America’s most recognized whiskeys over the last 45 years created a beautiful expression of Rye. “The nose,” Scheurich said, “features rich caramel, vanilla and grassy notes. It is a full-bodied, complex, warm and creamy whisky with flavors of toffee and butterscotch, complex, with notes of raisins and vanilla, a big mouth feel, a hint of small grain grassiness and a long, lingering, sweet finish”.

WHITE WINES GET THE RESPECT THEY DESERVE

White wines have grown popular in recent years among kosher wine consumers. For decades, the market has been dominated by red wines, but whites are on the rise. The Herzog family’s ancestor, Baron Philip Herzog received his title from Emperor Frans-Josef in the 19th century. The Emperor was so impressed with Herzog’s wines that he made him the official purveyor of wine to the Imperial Court. More than 150 years later, things are coming full circle as the quality and diversity of kosher white wines has improved significantly. Besides its award-winning, Baron Herzog Chenin Blanc, Herzog Russian River Chardonnay and Lineage Sauvignon Blanc, Royal Wine distributes now the Ramon Cardova Albariño from Spain’s Rías Baixas, Château Gazin Rocquencourt Blanc Pessac-Léognan, Koenig Riesling from Alsace, Goose Bay Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand, Netofa Tel Qasser Roussanne from Israel , Bartenura Pinot Grigio from Italy, and Elvi Herenza White from Spain’s Allela, to name only a few. High end white wines from Burgundy and Bordeaux are expected over the coming years, as well.
