Thanksgiving Wines The beauty of Thanksgiving is that almost any wine will work with the foods being served. At Thanksgiving, there are so many levels of flavors, textures, and richness, though, it's difficult to make any one grape the perfect choice at your Thanksgiving table.  The only absolute when it comes to Thanksgiving wine is to avoid heavy reds such as Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon.   Typically, I choose two wines to serve at Thanksgiving that will appeal all. That way, everyone has a choice, and can pick their favorite.  For my white wine, I typically choose a medium-bodied Chardonnay or a a fruity Viognier.  For the red wine choice, I tend to favor Pinot Noir. A good Pinot Noir that's not too heavy will have fruit and body without being too heavy like the reds I listed above that I avoid at my Thanksgiving table.  Need wine?  Shop our wine store for premium wines selected from around the world for you!  Our wine club is also a fantastic give that
