In Episode #13, Dr. Kenny Friedman and Rabbi Yisroel Bernath welcome Kevin Danna, owner and winemaker of Binah Winery, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

First, they delve into what is in their respective glasses, with Kevin drinking the new Cabernet Franc Reserve and Kenny drinking the Merlot, 2022.

They discuss Kevin's winemaking origin story and his fateful journey from landscape engineer to winemaker, beginning in Pinnacle Ridge Winery before starting his own winery. Danna discusses his background in sparkling wine, always Kenny's favorite, in this case, the 2021 Blanc de Blancs. Kevin takes the listener through each step of the process.

Danna speaks about his philosophy in winemaking and the different style he brings to winemaking in a cool climate region, unique to the kosher world. He discusses his path to kosher wine and the ability to use wine to bring people together.

The conversation covers topics such as the production and growth of Binah, the choice of varietals and blends, and the challenges for a boutique winery. They discuss the benefits of the Binah Winery Club, which is direct to customer, with no cost to join, unlimited free shipping, and great discounts. Binah wines can be purchased directly from the winery at binahwinery.com and Wine Club info can be found at binahwinery.com/club.
