It’s practically turkey time. Selecting the ideal red wine pairing for Thanksgiving can be a little intimidating with the vast array of tastes on the table. Traditional meals like buttery, velvety potatoes; tart cranberries; packing made with any variety of components; abundant, sweet potatoes; herbed veggies; and obviously, the turkey. Selecting the ideal red wines for Thanksgiving is everything about picking red wines that match a variety of tastes, rather of picking a red wine for each meal on the table.
