The Perfect Pairing for Any Thanksgiving Table

(Vocus) October 29, 2009 -- Choosing the perfect wine to pair with a Thanksgiving dish or the perfect bottle to bring a hostess can be an overwhelming prospect. Mount Pleasant Winery offers some wine suggestions that will bring out all the delicate flavors of any traditional Thanksgiving dinner.

To set the mood, Chuck Dressel, president of Mount Pleasant Winery, recommends starting the holiday evening with Champagne and appetizers. Sparkling wine is a great aperitif to sip while waiting for the turkey to cook.

"Our Brut Imperial (http://www.mountpleasant.com/Shop/Shop/tabid/56/CategoryID/32/Category2ID/31/List/0/Level/2/ProductID/26/Default.aspx) is a crisp, dry sparkler and an excellent choice for any wine lover," Dressel says. "For those looking for something sweeter, ours Ten Bucks (http://www.mountpleasant.com/Shop/Shop/tabid/56/CategoryID/32/Category2ID/31/List/0/Level/2/ProductID/14/Default.aspx) is a very popular creamy, carbonated white wine."

For those looking for the ideal white wine for their Thanksgiving table, a Riesling will carry a glass from appetizers through dessert. Mount Pleasant's Rhineland (http://www.mountpleasant.com/Shop/Shop/tabid/56/CategoryID/32/Category2ID/25/List/0/Level/2/ProductID/12/Default.aspx) is a wonderful choice that boasts aromas of apples and pears and flavors of tree fruits and melon. The refreshing Rhineland will bring a subtle sweetness to any Thanksgiving dish. Chardonnays (http://www.mountpleasant.com/Shop/Shop/tabid/56/CategoryID/32/Category2ID/25/List/0/Level/2/ProductID/25/Default.aspx) also lend themselves well to supporting the diverse food flavors and styles that are the hallmark of a Thanksgiving feast. Mount Pleasant's Chardonnay is a dry, buttery wine that is fermented exclusively in French oak barrels. This wine will sing with any creamed dishes.

Red wine lovers will enjoy fruity, medium-bodied wines with their Thanksgiving meal, such as a Cabernet Sauvignon (http://www.mountpleasant.com/Shop/Shop/tabid/56/CategoryID/32/Category2ID/24/List/0/Level/2/ProductID/29/Default.aspx). Mount Pleasant's Cabernet exhibits earth, cedar and dried cherry aromas that lead to a finish offering soft tannins and moderate acidity.

"Our Highland (http://www.mountpleasant.com/Shop/Shop/tabid/56/CategoryID/32/Category2ID/24/List/0/Level/2/ProductID/8/Default.aspx), a medium-bodied red with black cherry, molasses and plum aromas, is a fabulous choice if you prefer a sweeter wine," Dressel says. "Believe it or not, this one goes very well with cranberries."

For dessert, a Tawny Port (http://www.mountpleasant.com/Shop/Shop/tabid/56/CategoryID/32/Category2ID/27/List/0/Level/2/ProductID/13/Default.aspx) is ideal, offering the sweetness and the viscosity to support the rich flavors and robust spice of pumpkin pie. Mount Pleasant's award-winning Tawny Port includes aromas and flavors of caramel, nuts and butterscotch.

"Any quality wine will complement a great dish, so do not over think it," Dressel says. "Ultimately, it is important to drink what you like, but do not be afraid to try something new."
