OUR CHRISTMAS DINNER WINE PAIRINGS
For the classic turkey roast I would suggest Marsanne as your white wine and Members Only as your red. Both of these wines are medium bodied and the Members Only has more of a medium soft tannin structure that will complement the turkey. Poultry, while big in flavor sometimes, does not have a fatty body so if you don't want to have a wine with too heavy of a tannin component, or it may seem out of balance.
For the pork, I would go with the Rockstar or Mr. Big. Both are big flavored wines and will enhance the juiciness of the pork. Mr. Big is a very BIG wine so if your guests enjoy hearty wines with lots of character then this would be my pick but if want the meat to be star of the show then I recommend stick to the Rockstar. The current Rockstar has beautiful juicy fruit upfront, mellow tannins with a dry finish which will balance with the pork's!
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
