Be Excellent To Each Other
Look, it doesn’t really matter if his family changed their name. It was the past, we’ve all moved on. Now it would only be a curiosity, a bit of trivia to drive home the point that, under the surface, all us peoples of the world are really just the same. Maybe some don’t eat steak on Friday, maybe some keep kosher, maybe some try to fast during the day or pray at night. Some of you even order pork bbq and read Richard Dawkins. So what? Who cares? Even if we all think someone different is up there in the sky, everybody down here likes a holiday with their family and friends. And when you want to be laughing together over a meal, you absolutely need a few bottles of wine.
That’s why something like the 2004 Herzog Special Reserve Syrah, Edna Valley 3 Pack could be the perfect way to enjoy your Spring holiday of choice, be it Easter, Passover or the post-review Personal Day you’ve got to burn off or lose. Kosher and delicious, Herzog’s Northern Rhone style Syrahs are well balanced, with notes of berry, violet, plum, spices and just a little white pepper. There’s a full mouth feel with great flavor, and it’s been proven to work well with lamb chops, roasts, pasta with red sauce, even a simple hunk of hard cheese. No less than Wine Enthusiast gave this vintage a solid 90 points.
Plus, even if you’re not kosher yourself, you’ll still enjoy knowing that Jewish winemaking techniques go back roughly five thousand years, and that recent kosher wines are raising the bar once again. And have you heard about Philip Herzog? The man who became a Baron on nothing more than the strength of his wine? He was the start of the Herzog family a century ago, and they still respect him today. Because if they cut corners, they’re going to have to deal with his ghost. A ghost who came from Slovakia over a century ago. They don’t want to make him mad. Those ancient Slovakians could kick some butt when they wanted to.
So it doesn’t matter if that empty seat is for Moses, the Easter Bunny, Ghost Baron or the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the human guests will be wanting wine. With a 2004 Herzog Special Reserve Syrah, Edna Valley 3 Pack, you’ve got an easy way to make practically any member of your own species smile. We think that has to count for something up there, no matter who’s really listening.
