» Kelby Carr - Beaujolais Nouveau!

Great list!!
Every year, I always serve Beaujolais Nouveau with Thanksgiving. It's becoming a bit of a tradition (ever since we lived in France a couple years ago). It is always released about a week before Thanksgiving, and I just associate it with Thanksgiving anymore. Plus, it is a young and light red (for those hung up on turkey only going with white wines).
Thanks for the additional ideas!!!

In response to Beaujolais Nouveau! posted by kelbycarr:
Great suggestion! Beaujolais Nouveau is almost light enough to pass for a dark rosé and would probably complement the kaleidoscopic flavors present at the Thanksgiving table as well as any other single wine. And Beaujolais Nouveau is a seasonal wine that happens to appear around Thanksgiving time (U.S.).

Hi Alan:
I wanted to let you and your readers know about an excellent primer on Beaujolais. I was lucky to have a local wine expert Jonathon Alsop guest author this Rethinking Beaujolais piece.
Cheers,
