Red wine for Thanksgiving
I really should have posted this earlier, oh well...
Anyway, I'm pretty much a wine noob. I've only recently begun to tell the difference between the tastes of the different types of wines. I've found I'm partial to granache and merlot and not terribly fond of cabernet sauvignons (I only drink red, I've never found a white I liked). I'd like to bring a bottle to Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow - most everyone in my family prefers red and the one white holdout always brings his own. I looked online but mostly found very general guides - zinfandels, syrahs, and pinot noirs supposedly go well with turkey. My family seems to be somewhat picky about wine, so this is causing me some anxiety. I know most of the bottles they bring will be in the $20 to $25 range, which is fine with me.
Anyone have a favorite red they will be pairing with dinner tomorrow?
