Erath Pinot Gris
Ever wonder what types of wine to serve on Turkey day? I tend to be a vodka girl, and in my opinion there isn’t a meal that a dirty martini doesn’t go with, but this holiday season I thought I’d venture out.
According to the experts ( that magically dropped in my inbox via Real Simple magazine), light wines that are fruity and lively pair well with turkey meat. Here are some recommendations by Real Simple that are inexpensive and super easy to find, no matter where you live:
Charles Smith Kung Fu girl 2009
Fresh and light with a kiss of apricot and lychee
Pine Ridge Chenin Blanc 2009
Two award winning grapes combined, giving delicious flavors of honey dew, peach and jasmine.
Hayman & Hill Russian River Chardonnay 2008
Big and rich (and we ain’t talking the country band) with a light and bright finish, with tasty notes of tropical fruit, butterscotch and oak
Pertinance Barbera d'Alba
If you’re like me, when I dip into the sauce of sophistication, I prefer a red. Pertinace has notes of blackberry, black cherry and a zippy after taste that are perfect for Turkey.
Montevina Zinfandel 2006
This paired with all the rich heavy dishes of the holiday is a superb combination. Easy to drink, bold, but light enough to drink with appetizers or on it’s own.
Gruet Brut Champenoise
Looking to celebrate the disaster of family gatherings this holiday season? This bubbly will get the party started. Gruet is a dry Mexican sparkler with super fine bubbles, and a kiss of green apple.
Perfect for celebrating, light and fruity enough to enjoy with Turkey.
