| 75 | | | 89 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | Never mind that it's fall. A lovely rosé (or rosado or rosato) is an excellent aperitif or first course wine for Thanksgiving dinner, never mind that it will also happily accompany some turkey preparations. Made from Garnacha (Grenache), this full-bodied dry rosé shows a vibrant strawberry pink color. It's aromas embrace candied apple and red fruits, and on the palate, flavors of red fruits--red raspberries and red cherries--lead to a cry finish. Serve moderately chilled, about 60°F/15°C, or even a notch warmer, to capture this lovely fruit. Use a medium tulip-shaped glass. While I thought it would go better with dry salami than it did (and it still wasn't bad), it really liked spicy seafood fare, such as bacon-wrapped shrimp or scallops with rémoulade sauce; a spicy shrimp dip, crab, red pepper and lobster mousse; Creole barbecued shrimp; and amazingly sage-rubbed turkey breast with pan juices, smoked turkey breast, roast chicken.. It could be a winner with Cajun deep-fried turkey.
