LOCAL WINES FOR YOUR THANKSGIVING TABLE Thanksgiving meals tend to rely heavily on the same old classics. But what if you changed things up this year, with contemporary recipes and just the right wine pairing from fantastic Ontario wineries? Consider, for example, Trius Red. Its bold fruity flavours are excellent with rare roast beef on crostini, sliders with slow-roasted pork shoulder or thin slices of blackened lamb. Pelee Island Lola Cabernet Franc Cabernet Sauvignon VQA has spice, mint and herbal notes that sing with a luxe charcuterie board outfitted with nuts, gourmet crackers, cured meats and cheeses. Cozy sipping by the outdoor fireplace calls for the rounded berry and plum flavours of the versatile Open Cab 2 Merlot VQA. And the bright and zesty Sandbanks Riesling VQA works equally well with turkey as it does with savoury vegetarian fare like roasted cauliflower and chickpeas. Make your harvest celebration memorable with a selection of delicious Ontario VQA wines and casual recipes. It may even become a new tradition!
