As we enter the Thanksgiving season, we’re excited to feature a lineup of wines from New Zealand and Australia.
The New Zealand whites bring refreshing acidity, enhancing their bright fruit flavors and cutting through rich, buttery dishes, leaving your palate cleansed and ready for the next course. The reds from Australia are all about warmth and heart, like a big family gathering—they beautifully complement the ham and provide a sturdy pairing for turkey. And to top it all off, the pumpkin and apple pies will find their match in a wonderfully complex pink Moscato, adding a sweet and vibrant finish to your feast.
