The following kashrus and Passover alert from Kashrus Magazine online on March 12, 2012 and confirmed by the OK and reissued by the COR Detroit on March 10, 2013.

Ben-David Winery, based in Moshav Sdei Eliezer, was found to be using the "OK" symbol on bottles of Merlot 2008 (a dry red wine) without authorization. The label states "OK-P" (Kosher for Passover), but, in actuality, the wine has a regular non-mehadrin supervision and is the product of heter mechira grapes.
