Lloyd Prescription Chardonnay: This big, rich California white wine is made from 100% chardonnay grapes from the Clarksburg region of Yolo County. With key lime and citrus flavors, tropical fruit notes of guava and papaya and a long, smooth, crème brûlée-like finish, it’s sure to satisfy diners of all tastes.
Domaines des Baumard Savennières Chenin Blanc: This unique wine is made with organically grown grapes by a winery world-renowned for its dry white wines. Its full-bodied, creamy texture, bright acidity and quince, creamy pear, acacia, green almond and chalky mineral flavors make it ideal on its own or with a meal.
Roserock Pinot Noir: This wine is made by Domaine Drouhin in Oregon from the famed Roserock vineyard. This cool site with volcanic soils is ideal for producing pinot noir with bright tart cherry and cranberry flavors, accented by floral and spicy notes. One of Oregon’s best pinots, it’s a perfect wine to enjoy with the traditional Thanksgiving meal.
Schramsberg Mirabelle Brut Rosé: Made with chardonnay and pinot noir grapes grown all over California's coolest growing regions, this sparkling wine has a depth of flavor and complexity that’s rare for this price range. Its pleasant taste and effervescence make it an impeccable choice for raising a toast.
