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.

Year in, year out Château Turcaud produces one of the best white wine values in the world. It’s long been found on Michelin-starred wine lists in Paris and we’ve had it at the restaurant since Day 1. If you’ve ever tried this stunning, classic Bordeaux of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Sauvignon Gris and Muscadelle, then you know why. The new 2022 vintage has arrived and it’s beaming with energy and pure stone fruits. This is a beauty as always.
From just west of Sancerre, Vincent’s vines are tended organically in flint-laden, calcareous soil which lends a great brightness to the wine. The wine is crisp and aromatic Sauvignon, and is a superb choice for a “cocktail” wine, as an aperitif or to accompany just about anything from sea.
The newly released Riesling Feinherb 2021 is a lively, juicy wine with an elegant bouquet of minerals, wet stone and ripe fruit. On the palate, the wine’s slight off-dry component is beautifully balanced by the steely acidity typical of the Mosel. Because this is freshly released, the fruit is vibrant and succulent and it comes in somewhere between off-dry and semi-sweet. It’s a great example of Riesling, especially at the price.

This is a huge favorite of folks in the Red Bank area. It’s a bold, unapologetic Chardonnay with juicy notes of peach, lemon sorbet, baking spice and vanilla with a rich, creamy middle and plenty of natural acidity to balance it out. The lemon vanilla finish is perhaps the wine’s calling card or the sheer drinkability of it all. Either way, it’s a Chard that people adore. It’s no wonder Wine Enthusiast called this, “a big win for fans of this bold style”.
