Thanksgiving wine pairings don’t have to be complicated. In fact they’re pretty easy if you use our 3 ways to getting a great bottle every time.
For years the holiday headlines were always about finding the one, perfect wine pairing for Thanksgiving, but The Wine Sisters’ founding sommelier, Erin Henderson, says that’s a load of phooey.
There are so many flavours and textures on the table, not to mention the range of people and their varying tastes, to try and find a perfect bottle is a fool’s errand.
However, if you use our 3, time-tested ways to getting a great bottle every time, you can save yourself a ton of time and stress this Thanksgiving.
We centre our Thanksgiving wine pairings on what Erin calls the “3 Friendlies.” Crowd friendly, food friendly, and wallet friendly.
By grabbing wines that most people like, pair well with a lot of foods, and don’t cost a lot, you are well on your way to enjoying a marvellous and memorable Thanksgiving meal.
And one last tip: go get your bottles now, so you’re not fighting over the dregs come the holiday.
Watch this week’s video for a quick primer on 3 easy ways to pair your Thanksgiving wines.
