Thanksgiving, The All American Holiday
American wines are among the best in the world and you can have an all star line up for your Thanksgiving day feast by sticking close to home. Here’s the all star US line up:
Schramsberg Blanc de Blanc 2006 – Start out with Americas top sparkling wine. Bubbles can put a smile on anyone’s face, open the appetite and pair well with almost any appetizer.
Clinton Vineyards Seyval Naturel Champagne – If you want to keep it closer to home, (about an 90 minutes north of Bronxville) this is a top Hudson Valley Sparkling Wine made from the seyval grape.
Pinot Gris by Dr. Konstantin Frank 2009 – From the NY Finger Lakes – Great with salad, turkey, lighter appetizers and you can blind taste your guests to see if anyone guesses this is a NY wine.
Reds: On the lighter side go with a Pinot Noir and to hold up to the cranberry sauce and heavier dishes use a Zinfandel or a Zin blend.
The Decoy wines, which are from the Duckhorn Family would go great on the Thanksgiving table and pair well with all the traditional main dishes. The Zinfandel would go great with any pasta course or anything with a bit of spice and the Pinot will make your turkey dance. The Duck on the label will be a great addition to the table.
Cheers and Happy Thanksgiving from your friends at Station Plaza Wine!
