Givin' Thanks Bevs
What will be on your table this Thursday?
Turkey + Stuffing
Cranberry sauce
Creamed onions
Yams
Sweet potatoes
Mashed potatoes
Broccoli
Green beans
So is there a wine that can handle all of this? I think there are four easy-to-find wines that will make all your little pilgrims happy
1. Alsatian Gewurztraminer (try Trimbach or Perrin)
2. Beaujolais Cru (try Brouilly, Chenas or Moulin a Vent)
3. Italian Prosecco (Zardetto, Mionetto, Nino Franco are all good bets)
4. Pinot Noir (Be careful Pinot is a finicky grape; Pinots from Oregon & New Zealand are reasonably priced)
When all else fails, ask your neighborhood wine store guy/lady. And for all those under-age & non-drinking pilgrims, try Kristian Regale Swedish Pear Sparkler - it's actually quite good.
