Thanksgiving Wines

How to cook a Turkey - How to stuff a Turkey - How to carve a Turkey. There are so many things to think about as Thanksgiving approaches that we here at Francos Wine Merchants would like to help out by answering the question "What Wine to serve with Turkey?". There are a variety of side dishes and flavors on the Thanksgiving table, and so whether it is Pinot Noir, Cabernet, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Zinfandel – and whether that wine comes from Burgundy, California, Germany or another part of the world, there is really no wrong answer to the question of what to serve. And of course it's never too early to start thinking about the December Holidays of Christmas & New Year's, which will be upon us soon after. So here are some of our favorite suggestions for all the menu planning that lies ahead. You will see that we have broken it down into two lists for you: Thanksgiving Red Wines and Thanksgiving White Wines.
