It’s been written that a journey begins with a single step. But you don’t necessarily have to be home to take that first step.
Cynthia Craig and Curt Friehs, co-owners of Chosen Wine, the new kosher wine store located in Dormont, began their journey while visiting Israel. They visited the Jewish state in both 2016 and 2018 and were impressed by the wine they sampled, so different than the Manischewitz the couple associated with kosher wine.
“We were blown away by how good the wine was, particularly at the Dalton Winery. We went up to the vineyards, and it was just out of sight,” Friehs said.
