You Should Bring These Two Bottles to Thanksgiving Dinner, but anyone is welcome to bring wine
I'm too stupid to understand "analytics," but I suspect "what wine pairs with turkey?" " is a popular search keyword during this time of year. Pinot and Beaujolais are popular choices, but in my opinion, they are not the finest bottles to bring to a Thanksgiving or other seasonally festive dinner. Champagne and amaro have such distinction.
Amaro is brought by interesting people.
There's nothing wrong with pinot noir or Beaujolais (all wine is valuable), but they're almost certainly already on the guest list. Wine can (and will) be brought by anyone. Amaro is brought by interesting people. (In a bit, we'll come to the type of folks who bring Champagne.)
- It will last longer for your host. Even if your host decides to share, the pour size from a bottle of amaro is significantly lower than that of wine, allowing them to enjoy their present for much longer.
- It's a topic for discussion. If you think wine bottles are beautiful, take a look at the labels on amari. They are more ornamental and, in the case of Cynar, will have your guests asking queries such as "Wait. That's an artichoke, isn't it? ”
- It calms the stomach. A full and unsettled tummy can be soothed by sipping bittersweet amari. It's similar to medicine, but more enjoyable.
- It isn't too pricey. A bottle of amaro will typically cost between $20 and $40, depending on where you reside, which is on the low end for a nice bottle of wine.
- It gives you a sophisticated appearance. Unless you know your wine, bringing a bottle may seem a little hasty. However, pulling out a bottle of amaro makes you appear incredibly cool and cosmopolitan.
The stomach-settling characteristics are welcome at any dinner party, but they are especially welcome after devouring huge portions of turkey, mashed potatoes, and pie.
People who are sexy and intelligent bring Champagne.
Champagne is by far the most festive, joyous, and fun wine to have with your turkey dinner, but there are lots of practical reasons to serve it as well. Bringing a bottle of bubbly demonstrates that you are not only The Bitch Who Pops Bottles, but also The Bitch Who Understands Flavor. To repeat me (again), Champagne (or any acidic, sparkling wine) extends the party in your mouth by clearing the palette. It complements the full meal:
...its acidic, bright, effervescent nature makes it the ideal foil for salty, fatty food, which is precisely what a wonderful Thanksgiving feast consists of. If you don't believe me, try a sour cream-dipped potato chip and a swallow of bubbly. Your life will never be the same again. But, aside from fat and salt, Champagne goes well with everything. Though dessert wines are supposed to be sweeter than the dessert they're served with, I've eaten Champagne with a custardy pie and found it to be extremely enjoyable.
Of course, if you turn up with a bottle of chardonnay or pinot noir, or a case of beer, no one will be unhappy, dissatisfied, or unappreciative. There will be no ethanol at the celebration, but if you consider family gatherings and dinner parties as a competition, bringing a bottle of herbal, nuanced amaro or crisp, festive bubbly would undoubtedly help you win Thanksgiving (and finally show your SIL who's boss).
