Another Passover Question

[jkmunchkin]

Does anyone know if the Manischewitz Concord Grape Wine is gluten-free?

I called the company but their wine is actually made by another company that liscenses out the company name. I left a message to find out but figured maybe one of you guys know.

My absolute favorite Passover food is used making this wine. I already came up with a solution how to eat it without the matzoh (use a plain rice cracker), but will be so sad if I can't have my chorset cuz' of the wine.

I just had some Extra Heavy Malaga tonight at our Seder! It is gluten-free by the way...it has a special place in my Grandma's heart as she grew up on the stuff. So, go ahead and pour yourself a glass and use it in your special recipe! Happy Pesach by the way.

Thanks!!! My chorset and I thank you deeply

Ok, funny story. The first time I ever got drunk was on Manischewitz wine at my Grandmothers house on Passover when I was 4!! I really enjoyed the wine, (in my defense I was 4 and it really does taste like grape juice). My brother however was not a fan so I asked if I could finish his, and he gave it to me (he was only 6 so not like he knew better). I then proceeded to finish everyones wine left in their glasses when they got up from the table. Next thing you know there was a little wasted 4 year old banging into the china cart - lol!!!

Jilian, that's a cute story.

Is the Kedem grape juice gluten free?
