These five wines will see you through the holidays
by Dave McIntyre
Here are five delicious wines that will complement your Thanksgiving feast — or any dinner party for that matter: We have two outstanding sparkling wines from Oregon, a delightful pinot blanc from Michigan’s Old Mission Peninsula, a surprising pinotage from Mendocino and a rich syrah from California’s Central Coast.
GREAT VALUE
Argyle Vintage Brut 2014
Willamette Valley, Ore. $26
The standard-bearer of Oregon bubbles is still going strong. This wine is bursting with berry and red currant fruit, and a focus that establishes it as one of the best U.S. sparkling wines. ABV: 12.5 percent.
