What is your favorite #whitewine for Thanksgiving? This is the third day of my tips! 🥂 🥂 🥂 White wine is always a popular choice for guests and with regard to it, acidity is your biggest ally for a Thanksgiving meal. Tannin being hardly ever an issue with #whitewines, I recommend focusing on finding those wines with medium to high acidity. It will cut the fattiness of greasy dishes and sides while also holding up to vegetables that are otherwise hard to pair. I do highly recommend keeping your dry whites away from desserts and your dry reds for that matter. 🦃 The classic Thanksgiving whites are riesling, sauvignon blanc, and chardonnay. Riesling and sauvignon are crisp perfection in this delicious setting. Chardonnay though, in my opinion, needs a little explanation. You want to find those from a cooler climate, with less oak influence, and without a full body. This is because if they are too big or too oakey they just won't go well with nearly as many dishes and may come off tasting a bit flabby. No one likes that! 🥂 Do not underestimate these classic wines. They are tried and true and will easily carry you through your meal, however in good conscience I must ask you to consider some up and coming and perhaps less celebrated yet remarkably lovely and suitable whites. These are albarino, falanghina, melon (aka muscadet), and verdicchio. . . . #winefact #winetasting🍷#wineandfoodpairing #thanksgivingwine #thanksgivingwines #winefacts (at Silver Spring, Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqXpiO8n5tU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1p2czdi3u6uos
