If you have waited until the last minute and need a perfect Thanksgiving dinner wine or just want to impress whoever is hosting this year's feast, then St. Supery has got you covered. St. Supery's Dollarhide Sauvignon Blanc is full of bright fruit aroma and stunning flavor. The flavor profile sits heavily on plump peaches and is well accented by the citrusy nuances of vibrant grapefruit, and a fresh squeezed lemon and lime combo. I love the earthiness of this wine, there is fresh cut grass and a stone minerality that truly offsets the clean fruit flavors. The melding of flavors, texture and the clean finish, make this Sauvignon Blanc a top pick wine for skillfully handling all that a traditional Thanksgiving dinner has to offer.

Thanksgiving can be a high pressure event with all of the food prep, guest preferences, wine selections and seating arrangements, but it doesn't have to be! We'll try to pare down the preparations by offering up a starting point for wine picks and pairings. You will also find a handful of good value wines right around the $10 price point, as a houseful of guests can sometimes clip the wine budget fairly quickly. Read the top 10 recs here.

The 2007 Mark West Pinot Noir is a fantastic value wine find, and with Thanksgiving dinner just around the corner it's a good time to grab a few bottles, as it will pair perfectly with the traditional turkey dinner. Give this wine extra consideration if you are serving any dishes with mushrooms in the mix. This particular ruby colored Pinot presents ripe raspberry aromas and delicious cherry fruit on the palate with a dash of vanilla. It is a medium-bodied, silky smooth, red wine that offers a tremendous amount of food versatility.
