Perfect Pairings for your Thanksgiving
Fall is all about comforting seasonal flavours like roasted vegetables, hearty stews and dishes made for sharing. Thanksgiving is just around the corner and is the perfect time to embrace the season, reflect on the year so far, and give thanks for all that we have.
To help make your celebrations even more delicious, see below for a few of our favourite ways to pair fall flavours with Henry of Pelham wines for your Thanksgiving feast or other holiday meal.
Baked Brie + Three Hills Reserve Chardonnay — Creamy cheese and Chardonnay are a natural match. Our Three Hills Reserve Chardonnay brings richness and freshness to a warm baked Brie. Take it to the next level and add a cranberry spread or sauce on the side.
Chicken Pot Pie + The Painted Wagon Pinot Noir — Flakey pastry, creamy filling and roasted chicken meet their match in Pinot Noir. The Painted Wagon Reserve Pinot Noir brings brightness and fruit to balance this cozy classic while not out-shining the meal.
Sweet Potato Casserole + Fracette Rosé — Sweet potatoes and marshmallows bring plenty of sweetness to the table, making a dry sparkling wine an unexpected but delicious pairing. Our new Fracette Rosé is dry and refreshing with vibrant acidity, making it a fun contrast to the classic casserole.
Turkey + The Dry River Reserve Riesling - Turkey is the star of Thanksgiving and our Dry River Reserve Riesling is a perfect match. The refreshing acidity and fruit forward flavour make this Riesling a thanksgiving must-have.
Chili + Old Vines Baco Noir — When the temperature drops, chili season begins. Our Old Vines Baco Noir brings rich blackberry fruit, spice and oak that make it a great pairing for rich chili flavours. Whether it is game day, or just a day to gather, this shareable favourite is perfect.
Apple Crisp + Cuvée Catharine Rosé Brut — Our traditional method Cuvée Catharine Rosé Brut adds subtle red berry notes and a creamy effervescence that pairs wonderfully with warm, spiced desserts like apple crisp while not overpowering them.
Whatever you're celebrating, and whomever you're celebrating with, pour a glass and take a moment to enjoy the season, the food and the people around you.
