With Thanksgiving in mind, we should discuss what works best with the Big Bird. For me, the unique mix of flavors of the traditional Thanksgiving Dinner needs wine that is fresh and vibrant. Aromatic, high toned wines work best, you need plenty of cut to get through all that richness. An absolutely brilliant one just rolled off its temp-controlled container, an electric Italian white wine that is going to be just perfect with the All-American meal.
It’s all in the family at Morgassi Superiore, where sisters, Marina and Cecilia Piacitelli joined their Dad in 1993 at the estate, a farm in Gavi di Gavi, in northwestern Italy. The vineyards are 300 meters in altitude, the highest in area and planted on limestone-laden slopes. The Piacitellis farm without the use of chemicals and do everything by hand, ensuring that their Gavi is wildly aromatic, loaded with fruit and finishes crisp and a mile long.
It’s a great choice for holiday white, versatile, wonderful as an aperitif or delicious with any kind of holiday fare. Better than just about Pinot Grigio we’ve tasted this year, it’s an easy choice for the perfect Thanksgiving white.

This one is so fruit friendly and inviting and also the perfect treat for some Italian food or fresh fish. It leads with beautiful notes of stone fruit, lemon, lime, and some acacia flowers. It’s delicate, but still full on the mouth, with good structure, freshness, and intensity.
It’s an electric white Burgundy, with a limestone-laced aromatic profile of green apple, pear and hazelnut. Refined and high-toned, the pure, delicious fruit that is a hallmark of this terrific vintage, finishes long and fresh, with a mile-long mineral streak.
It’s hard to beat a great value white wine and this one is a at least a cut above the rest. One prominant industry insider called the 2022 edition, “the best white wine by any within $20/cs of this price.” It’s super crisp with a great mineral streak, and was carefully picked by hand when the temperature is coolest and is kept cool all the way into the press. From there, the effect of the mineral soil takes over, providing great finesse and freshness in every bottle. This white blend has great backbone and a lot of juicy fruit coming through behind aromas of flowers and stone fruits. At this price, it’s a no brainer.
Glistening pale yellow-green to the rim, infused with mouth-watering aromas of ripe apple, pear and quince, and crushed almonds with honey and rich creamy middle and a fantastic rush of acidity and minerality that are present throughout. A calling card of Bonhomme’s Vire-Clesse, if you closed your eyes and took a sip, it would have you convinced you were drinking Meursault at least a 3x price tag.
