| | OMG! Thanksgiving is almost here and whether you're hosting or being hosted, there is high probability you'll leave the wine for last minute. Not to worry! Here are 3 quick red wine picks for the occasion, vetted by your favorite wine shop and ready for delivery or pick up.
|
| "Big Family Gathering"
NV VINO ROSSO, Costadila 2 L $33
This wine is a great companion for the hodgepodge of flavors and preferences of big family meals, and it's the perfect size! The two liter bottle is assurance everyone gets to drink the same wine, and if for some odd reason you don't drink it all, don't worry. Just flip the cap on and revisit it the following day with leftovers! Juicy and fresh, if you're only picking up one bottle, this is it.

| "The Gourmand"
2017 PINOT MEUNIER, Keep Wines $35
Some folks take Thanksgiving as a chance to showcase their culinary hand and go way beyond the butterball turkey and mashed potatoes.
Needless to say, the wine should follow suit and bringing this bottle will let them know you put some thought into it, without breaking the bank.
This is a Napa Valley oddity, sourced from a 3 acre vineyard planted at the French Laundry's back yard. Pinot Meunier is very much like Pinot Noir, and here it shows precision and clarity. Perfumed and delicate.

| "Pressed to Impress" 1991 BRAMATERRA 'RISERVA', Tenuta Monolo $55
If you're looking for WOW factor, this wine does it. It is a delicious and elegant rendition of the Nebbiolo grape (think Barolo meets Burgundy), and in impeccable shape for a wine over 25 years old. Still showing plenty of wild red fruit, with silky texture, finishing on a dried flower and herb note. A stunner. Decant for best results.
