• The Manischewitz brand offers the best-selling Kosher wine in the U.S.. Its most famous product, a sweet Concord grape wine with added corn syrup, is notorious for causing happiness and dismay to Jewish wine drinkers in increasingly shifting measure, as the quality of kosher wines improves worldwide. On the other hand, the line of Manischewitz wines can also be seen as homespun and antiquey, providing a selection of rural-American styles unavailable elsewhere. Examples include sweet blackberry and loganberry wines and a cherry wine advertised as tasting like "fresh baked cherry pie." A line of creams and cordials also exists in which wines are blended with fruit flavors and with something in the nature of non-dairy creamer.
