Wine During the Nine Days

Wine During the Nine Days
Day: Thursday
Date: July 31, 2014
Parshat: Devarim
Yalkut Yosef: 551


Some people have the custom not to drink wine during the shavua shechal bo. Others have the custom not to drink wine during the whole nine days. Still others, including many Sephardim, do not have any custom to refrain from wine even during the shevua shechal bo. Regardless of ones personal custom, he may drink the havdala wine on motzei Shabbat even if the cup contains more than the absolute required amount. Other alcoholic drinks such as beer or liquor are not included in any prohibition. It is proper to not eat meat or drink wine the day after Tisha Be'av as well since the Bet Hamildash continued to burn through that day as well.
