Not hosting
Thanksgiving, but in charge of bringing wine to a family member or friend's dinner? I highly recommend seeking out a bottle of Mark West's 2007 Pinot Noir. It's not only affordable (
$11.99), but its also delightfully drinkable and silky smooth.
She's the queen of the kitchen, can whip up a double chocolate souffle while sleeping, and has dined at
Momofuko Ko,
David Chang's notoriously difficult-to-get-into restaurant, twice. Think there's nothing to get this kitchen diva — the girl whose been there, done that, got the t-shirt? Think again!
PartySugar and I have already planned our
Thanksgiving menus, and now we're just eagerly awaiting
the big day. To distract our giddy selves, we had a discussion about what we're serving to drink at Thanksgiving dinner. She'll be serving a citrus spritzer, Champagne, and Beaujolais, while
DearSugar will be drinking red, white, and bubbly.
My girlfriend Sonia has recently developed an interest in wine. She's taking classes, going tasting, and immersing herself in all things vino. I rounded up a collection of gifts that are perfect for Sonia, and those like her, the newbie winos.

Looking for a effervescent bubbly to kick-start your
Thanksgiving festivities? Well you'll find it in this lovely Italian
Prosecco by Collalbrigo.
With its straw color, delicate bubbles, and apple-pear aroma, it's a refreshingly easy sipper.
This week, the country's running wild with wine tasting events. Even if there isn't one listed below that you can attend, chances are that this week there's a wine celebration going on near you, as the third Thursday of each November marks the yearly release of
Beaujolais nouveau. Stock up on cases to pair with your upcoming
Thanksgiving dinner, because as soon as the bottles sell out, they're gone for good.

Oenophiles, rejoice: This week is packed with wine tastings around the country. Perhaps everyone's gearing up for the
holidays, or brainstorming early pairings for
Thanksgiving. I'll take the wine, whatever the reason.
