Reply To: Purim Seudah Wine

PS can anyone please cite the source that it is a mitzvah (from the word tzavaah meaning commandment)? You have what may be at best a d’rabbanan. Im not sure of even that.

it is mentioned as a chiyuv in the gemara so i guess that makes it a dirabbanan and there are halachas about it, and we give importance to dirabanans like dioraysah

you should take note in do way would anyone advocate getting plastered or even dangerous drinking, one gives his wife the keys and doesn’t overdo it

A chilled 2010 Eau de Javel Blanc de Blancs is one of the best wines for the Purim seudah. It is sold in white jugs and is very inexpensive. Strength is 5.25 – 6.5%

iyhbyu: White wine is lighter than red wine, which is why you may find it easier to swallow.

Normally white wine is served with fish whereas red wine is served with red meat.

As for a good wine to be mekayeim the mitzva on purim, try Chateuneuff (however you spell it). Its white not too sweet and not too dry. Be aware, that whatever you get too drunk on,you wont be able to look at again!! .

thank you ill keep it in mind too
