🍷 Wine Recommendation: McGrail Vineyards Shamus Patrick Red Blend

Our Shamus Patrick Red Blend is a Bordeaux style red blend, and an exquisite, limited-production wine, known for its rich, velvety texture, and complex flavors. It pairs beautifully with the traditional flavors of Thanksgiving.

🦃 Thanksgiving Pairing Suggestions:

Start your meal with a glass of our 2021 McGrail Family Chardonnay or 2022 Kylie Ryan Rosé to complement appetizers and salads. Enjoy our Chardonnay with this delicious Honeycrisp Salad.

As you gather around the table for the main course, the Shamus Patrick Red Blend is a splendid choice to enhance the flavors of roast turkey, cranberry sauce, and savory stuffing.

Don’t forget to save room for dessert! Our McGrail Vineyards Merlot is the perfect pairing for pumpkin pie or chocolate desserts.
