Turkey + Wine

Photo: from Maverick

This Wednesday the 14th, winos and turkeys unite! Maverick is hosting its eleventh “One of a Kind Wednesday.” This one is ~ALTERNATIVE BUT PERFECT THANKSGIVING WINE PAIRINGS~, focusing on wines to pair with Thanksgiving dinner (and they’re not talking the obvious pinot noir and chard). They will pair an Amador Foothills mourvedre with turkey, a North Coast cabernet franc with all those lovely side veggies, and an Oregon pinot blanc with the stuffing. Limited to ten folks.

Then, over at William Cross Wine Merchant, the seventh annual ~WINES TO PAIR WITH THANKSGIVING~ tasting will be going on. Ruggero Gadaldi, owner and chef of Upper Polk’s Antica Trattoria and Pesce (and Last Supper Club in the Mission) will be preparing the birds for the tasting. The tasting will involve a variety of wines, and you can decide for yourself what tastes good with turkey! Gobble gobble.
