Kompot: Because Boiled Fruits Are the New Wine
Not everyone at my table wants wine. (Shocking, I know.) So I turn fruit that's about to go bad into a gorgeous, refreshing punch, and the kids and the guests are happy.

Cave du Bollenberg Riesling
I am about to ruin boring chicken wings for you forever. Crispy roasted wings, a sticky tamarind glaze, earthy za'atar, and a chilled Cave du Bollenberg Riesling to put out the fire.
Galil Mountain Yiron Syrah
Holiday food shlep is a whole sport. Here are my sweet and sour meatballs with pomegranate molasses and a little spicy twist, poured with Galil Mountain Yiron Syrah.
Covenant Lavan Chardonnay
Kotleti po-kyivski, plant-based garlic butter, and a Covenant Lavan Chardonnay that keeps the crunch and the melt in balance.
Shirah Syrah
I was born in Tashkent, and nothing brings back home faster than a hot, crispy meat samsa. Here's my easy kosher version, poured with a big, peppery Shirah Syrah.
L'Indiscrète Sancerre
Your Shabbat table is a royal event. Five homemade challah dips in about 20 minutes, plus the cold Sancerre that resets your palate after every bite.
We step outside our comfortable, permanent houses and into a fragile sukkah. Under the stars, you suddenly realize what holds true significance.
Lueria Unoaked Chardonnay
Brown the chicken, add bright bell pepper, melt it down in broth and white wine. Then pour a cold Lueria Unoaked Chardonnay: bone dry, with a clean fruit crunch.
