Get ready to experience the kosher event of the year at the Kosher Food & Wine Experience (KFWE) 2017. The event unfolds on February 13 from 6:30–9:30 p.m in New York City at Pier Sixty/Chelsea Piers and includes the largest selection of kosher wines and spirits under one roof as well as gourmet kosher cuisine.
The KFWE, sponsored by The Royal Wine Corp., has grown to be the destination of choice for serious wine lovers and foodies the world over. This year’s show will feature new wine selections, rare vintages and limited editions of wines and spirits imported from renowned vineyards from across the globe. Many are award-winning and have been featured in leading trade publications.
At this year’s KFWE, more than 300 wines and spirits will be on hand for sampling. Among the new wines making their debut are Terra di Seta Assai, the first kosher Gran Selezione Chianti ever to be produced, as well as Herzog Generation VIII Cabernet Sauvignon Padis Vineyard Napa Valley 2014, a very special edition wine that is released only every few years and is made from grapes grown in a select premium vineyard.
The evening event will also feature gourmet fare from top restaurants and chefs who are making news in the world of kosher food with unexpected ingredients and innovative recipes. Guests can indulge in gourmet specialty foods including BBQ, sushi and Asian fusion fare, as well as creative desserts and specialty coffees.
