Stay Local With These Thanksgiving Pairings Unsworth Vineyards Allegro 2019 Emandare Vineyard 2019 Rosé We all love turkey, gravy and all the traditional Thanksgiving fixings. The most versatile wine available for pairing with food is Rosé! It’s the delightful juiciness that cuts through the fat and leaves our palate ready for the next delicious bite. Happy Thanksgiving! $25

the perfect wine for many holiday dishes. Across my table we have a traditional turkey and cranberry sauce with all the usual suspects. There are always multiple bottles of Sparkling, White and Red wines. The bottle that always disappears first is Allegro. It has a broad range of aromas and flavours from citrus to apple and peach. It has enough weight on the palate to pair with heavily seasoned mashed potatoes and gravy but also the poise and finesse to pair with an ever present smoked Salmon Canape. Island wines have flair with food, and Allegro is certainly no exception. $23

Averill Creek Vineyard Charme de l’Ile Sparkling Charme de l’Ile and apple pie: We love finishing a decadent meal with the refreshing and unexpected pairing of a Sparkling Wine. The Charme de l’Ile from Averill Creek mimics the tart, Granny smith notes of an spple pie, with a hint of underlying sweetness and a creaminess that compliments a fine vanilla ice cream. The celebration continues! $22

Alderlea Vineyards 2018 Pinot Noir This elegant and subtle wine contrasts flavours and aromas of red cherry and allspice with hints of eucalyptus and leather. The balanced acidity and smooth finish, make it an excellent pairing with traditional Thanksgiving turkey or ham. $26
