Wine for the Weekend

Having troubles deciding what type of wine to serve with your Thanksgiving meal? Tired of the old white wine with white meat and red wine with red meat rule? Look no further! I have a couple ideas that you may find refreshing:



Pinot Noir

This smooth red will go very well with your bird. It has little tannin and will not overwhelm the taste of your food.



Riesling

A crisp, dry riesling will refresh your palate by cutting through the fatty flavours of a thanksgiving meal. It offers a balance of acidity and sugar that can stand up to stronger flavours.

You're not just serving turkey - think of all the side dishes, or even other meats. Offering both whites and reds to your guests gives them a choice.

Happy Thanksgiving - Enjoy!!

As usual, YUM.
What do you usually do food wise at the cabin? Do you plan a weekly menu? What sort's of things can you leave out there over the winter - spices etc or is that a bad idea b/c of bears?
