<a href="http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2003/11/20/WIG1Q35G1R1.DTL">Pairing tips for Thanksgiving</a>: Here are a few other white varietals and appropriate food matches:
-
Pinot Grigio is a good aperitif and goes well with roasted turkey.
-
Gewurztraminer has a spicy character that sets it up for cranberry or fall fruit chutney and pumpkin or butternut-squash soup flavored with baking spices.
-
Riesling, especially German Kabinetts and off-dry Spatleses, with their tropical fruit, citrus, green-apple, pear and mineral notes, work with almost any Thanksgiving dish except cranberry sauce and desserts.
-
Chardonnay — the less oak the better — has similar versatility and its full body makes it appropriate for creamed dishes.
